What platform do you see this on?  I don't see it here on any of our 
systems here.  The nightly builds show conc047 failing on the "mnemosyne 
x86-64 Gentoo 6.6" buildbot sometimes.

It might be caused by a kernel bug.  I used to have bogus conc failures 
before I upgraded our x86-Linux box from RedHat 9 to a recent Fedora, and 
IIRC I tracked it down to mutex operations deadlocking for no good reason.

Cheers,
