It seems that thr_kill doesn't behave properly when the VM is under load. When doing anything that stresses the hard disk, firefox dies in thr_kill, called from pthread_mutex_lock. The crash address is the bnslr immediately following the sc, so I believe it's encountering some kind of page fault inside the kernel. Since I've only seen this on powerpc, I can only assume that it's specific to this arch.home | help
