[comp.os.mach] Cthread bugs?

I am working on a new multiprocessor machine here at OMRON, and part
of what I am doing is using cthreads, the mutual exclusion package.
However, when I use the CONDITION variables, I seem to be 'loosing'
the signals to the conditions, leaving my threads blocked.  It 
doesn't APPEAR to be a problem with the structure of the code, and it
doesn't seen to happen when the machine is configured with only one
CPU.  Does anybody know of any bugs/ fixes/ 'gotchas' for multi-cpu
systems?


Thanks in advance,

PS If anybody cares, I can send a 'bares bones' version of the
   program that also doesn't work.

The company doesn't know (and doesn't care) WHAT I do.
