Good to know, sounds like that may be a better solution for this particular situation and esoteric enough to not warrant maintaining the _thread_dump_info() call in order to support older BSD systems that perhaps predate or don't support the SIGINFO behavior. For what it's worth, this bit of code has in fact been used to debug the threading libraries in the past. > I'm going to close this one.
