 I think I now discovered the real problem.
 
      pthread_t     id;
 
      status = pthread_create(&id, ...)
 
   The first call to pthread_create returns a valid thread ID 'id' argument.
 Subsequent pthread_create calls return 0 for id.   'status' is 0 in each
 case indicating successful thread creation.  (My multithreaded program works
 fine with the exception of that thread id.)
 
    I use a C++ object for each thread.  I was setting my object's ID
 attribute to the 'id' argument returned by pthread_create.   This works for
 the first thread I create, but not for subsequent threads.
 
    When I was printing out the thread_id, (which I later cast to long long),
 I was using "%lld".   So I thought %lld was the problem.  Since that wasn't
 the problem, I think the problem is with pthread_create.
 
    pthread_self() always returns the correct ID.    I now use this function
 everytime I need the thread-id.
 
    Do you want me to file a separate bug report on this?     Or am I going
 nuts again?   :)    I am on Red Hat Linux on an Intel platform.   Same thing
 happens on Mandrake Linux on Intel.

 State-Changed-Why:
     Buggy test case.  You have a typo in your printf format.
     Should be "1 << %lld = %lld".  Using -Wall would have
     pointed this out:
 
     z.c: In function `main':
     z.c:11: warning: int format, different type arg (arg 2)
