This is probably PR boehm-gc/21942.

I've recently sent a new message about this to the boehm-gc list:

	http://www.hpl.hp.com/hosted/linux/mail-archives/gc/2006-June/001334.html

In the past, it was possible to get around boehm-gc test failures by
switching to pthreads on Solaris/x86 (though I vaguely recall that this
broke Solaris/SPARC).  I'm still waiting for Hans to comment on my patch
and eventually make a copy of gc6.[89] which has made this switch available
for testing.
