[M3devel] wrapping postgresql library not enough

[Mika Nystrom]

Hi again,

So, as I described before, I wrote a program that wraps all of Critical
Mass's "postgresql" library (PQ.i3) with Scheduler.DisableSwitching /
Scheduler.EnableSwitching.  Yes, it seems to have reduced the frequency
at which my application locks up, but it has not eliminated the lockups.

User threads, AMD64_LINUX.

I'm not quite sure what to try next.  How can I find out where malloc
and free might be used reentrantly, assuming that is the problem?

There may not be any reliable threading in CM3 anymore.  Possibly it's
reliable on FreeBSD (without -pthread) but I wouldn't bet money on it.

     Mika
