Do either/both of these use pthreads by any chance? I've run into the exact
same situation recently (crashing at exit, on SuSE 9.0) when using pthreads
with dynamic linking. Try building things statically, and see if your
results change.
Thanks, but I don't think that is it.
rsynth doesn't use threads in any way at all.
Perl is linked against pthreads but testcase that has the problem
does not start any threads. (Linking perl against threads statically
would be a pain.)
Cheers!
