Should nspr be passing all its prtests on a 6.1-RELEASE x86 box?

Apparently not.

The following tests are causing grief: - forktest fails - socket never finishes - ktrace shows it looping endless around: 50838 socket CALL poll(0xbeef3e20,0x1,0x1388) 50838 socket RET fork 0 50838 socket CALL kserelease(0x8076f40) 50838 socket RET kserelease 0 50838 socket CALL poll(0xbeef3e20,0x1,0x1388) 50838 socket RET fork 0 50838 socket CALL kserelease(0x8076f40) 50838 socket RET kserelease 0 (etc etc) (or should this be directed into the appropriate Bugzilla?)

Actually, the socket failure might point to a bug in our IPv6 stack. The test that locks up is the UDP client/server IPv6/IPv4 test (and all the TCP tests pass). The fork test looks like a potential problem in libpthread. Running the same test using libthr instead of libpthread does not trigger the abort message, but the test appears to lock up in [lthr].

That said, we do not appear to be having any practical problems with nspr. That is, Gecko browsers and Evolution (some of the biggest nspr consumers) operate fine.
