Just inspecting the code leaves me stumped. This assertion means that the lane structure 's' thinks itself inside the self-destruct chain, but when looking for it we don't find it. The strange thing is, all insertions and removals happen under lock, so there must be something I do wrong, but I don't know what yet...
I don't know the code so I have no idea whether this is at all relevant, but I ran into a problem like this a few years ago, and it turned out to be a problem with fork() and pthreads; the behaviour of a semaphore or mutex is undefined if it goes through a fork, and the particular Linux variant I was using was silently unlocking all mutexes in the child process.
That took me about nine months to diagnose. -- ┌─── ｄｇ＠ｃｏｗｌａｒｋ．ｃｏｍ ───── http://www.cowlark.com ───── │ "I have always wished for my computer to be as easy to use as my │ telephone; my wish has come true because I can no longer figure out │ how to use my telephone." --- Bjarne Stroustrup
