What happens when you do this?

I haven't seen any of this yet on -STABLE or -CURRENT.  Do you have
anymore info on this?  Is there a bug filed already?

I have noticed that the new thunderbird (and some users have also
reported the same with firefox) will crash in libpthread when trying to
start up in a clean account.  libmap'ing libpthread to libc_r, starting
thunderbird, then libmap'ing libpthread back to libpthread seems to
work, but I think there may be a libpthread problem.  I've sent email to
threads@.
