OK, I'm looking at Boehm-GC's GC_wait_marker and this function is
utterly bogus. It's using a condition variable without a predicate,
and the corresponding broadcast operation runs without the lock held,
so it's inherently subject both to spurious wakes and missed wakes.
Here's the source:

https://github.com/ivmai/bdwgc/blob/57b97be07c514fcc4b608b13768fd2bf637a5899/pthread_support.c#L2374

This code is only used if built with PARALLEL_MARK defined, and
obviously does not and cannot work, so I think the best solution is
just figuring out how to turn off PARALLEL_MARK.

Do you have reason to believe the problem here has anything to do with
the MT-fork patch? Was it maybe just hanging somewhere earlier without
the patch, and now hanging on an independent bug?
