From: Hongli Lai Date: 2011-02-22T20:46:22+09:00 Subject: [ruby-core:35334] [Backport87-Backport#1471] "Mutual join" deadlock detection faulty in 1.8.6 and 1.8.7 Issue #1471 has been updated by Hongli Lai. It appears that applying this patch instead of John Carter's patches fixes both the mututal join problem as well as the crashing problems: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/commit/072ccff04debff32072e771bc078fe8bc14ccaad But it's only applied to the 1_8 branch. If the fix is correct I think it should be backported to 1.8.7 ASAP. ---------------------------------------- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/1471 ---------------------------------------- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org
