Comment 1

[Christopher Blizzard (:blizzard)]

I'm seeing this too.  Mail/news is hanging when trying to automatically create a
new folder.  Lots of threads are stuck waiting on condition variables.  Is
someone not releasing a mutex?

Comment 2

[Wan-Teh Chang]

If someone is not releasing a mutex, the other threads
would most likely be blocked in PR_Lock().  But
PR_WaitCondVar also needs to reacquire the lock when
the waiting thread is awaked.  More likely is that
PR_WaitCondVar is not being called correctly.  Could
you point out the source code where the condition
variable wait is done?
