Description

Regardless of the compiler (gcc or Sun C++), when compiled with Solaris Threads instead of POSIX threads, the 22.locale.statics.mt fails at runtime with SIGSEGV or SIGHUP, suggesting a problem with the uses of Solaris threads mutexes in the library.

I'm assuming this is not a regression but we need to check the results of the test in 4.2.0 to make sure. If it is one, it would make the priority of this issue a Blocker. Otherwise, if it's not a new problem, we might be able to defer it post 4.2.1 if it's too hard to fix.
