I spent a little time trying to debug this a few weeks ago. I did confirm 
that the problem doesn't occur on x86_64. On x86 though, it looks like a 
Heisenbug - it behaved differently when running in the debugger, and 
differently depending on how you hit it in the debugger.  To me it looked 
like it was buried somewhere in the threading library, but I didn't really 
get far enough along to say.
