>Description:
Memory used to hold state for EH processing is shared
across threads due to a configuration error introduced
when C++ EH code was moved from gcc/libgcc2.c to
libstdc++-v3/libsupc++.

This bug has been reported a few times on gcc-bugs.

The attached test case was taken from (cleaned up
only slightly):
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-bugs/2001-05/msg00855.html

dave@hiauly1.hia.nrc.ca also reported this problem with
an initial patch to libstdc++-v3.
>How-To-Repeat:
The lack of using thread-specific memory produces
non-deterministic failures.  However, the non-portable
(to non-POSIX hosts) code attached will surely crash
after some amount of time.
>Fix:
Patch posted to libstdc++-v3, gcc-patches and installed on
mainline.
