 A good test case showing similar crash/hand/failure is threadpool.exe in mono/tests.

+threadpool is demonstrating a different problem I think - it's failing
+because ThreadPool cleans up by Thread.Abort()ing all the runner
+threads, and our Thread.Abort is extremely unstable (I assume on all
+platforms, it certainly is on x86.)
+
+I can reproduce this deadlock on ppc by running a simple "Hello,
+World!" enough times in a loop...
+
+I'm going to try valgrind's thread debugging skin on a rh9/nptl box,
+to see if it throws up anything likely.
