A quick test with 1.1.24 shows that it didn't hang then, but hit the same segfault if using perl without a fixed thread stack size. The only reason the segfault seemed new to me was because the program had never reached past the hang in the futex syscall :) I will see if I can find the time to write some programs to torture test the impl further, assuming that would help.
