Yep. The pthread_create() is crashing when libgcj tries to create the 
first thread. glibc 2.1.3 ought to be okay (at least, I'm not aware of 
any problems), but upgrading would be a good idea anyway. Did you 
compile libgcj yourself or is it from a binary package? If libgcj were 
compiled against a newwer glibc, and then run against an older one, it 
could cause this sort of problem.
