Quick followup: I rebuilt ld-elf.so with debug symbols and it seems that
at the following place in rtld_lock.c 'flags' variable gets assigned a
value of five (5):
(gdb) fr 2
#2 0x282a86bf in _rtld_thread_init (pli=0xbfbfe66c) at
/system/src/libexec/rtld-elf/rtld_lock.c:275
275 flags = thread_mask_set(~0);
(gdb) list
270 {
271 int flags, i;
272 void *locks[RTLD_LOCK_CNT];
273
274 /* disable all locking while this function is running */
275 flags = thread_mask_set(~0);
276
277 if (pli == NULL)
278 pli = &deflockinfo;
279
...
(gdb) p flags
$10 = 5
Wait, I think I just found something:
(gdb) b rtld_lock.c:143 if mask != 1
Breakpoint 8 at 0x282a8311: file
/system/src/libexec/rtld-elf/rtld_lock.c, line 143.
(gdb) c
...
(gdb) bt

So can all this be a result of an exception thrown before threads are
initialized?
Is this something that might already be fixed in HEAD/trunk or in
RELENG_7? (I seem to vaguely remember something related).
