>Description:
I have been experiencing pthread apps fail with Bus error on startup, this is
the most common failure I experience and hasn't improved in a few weeks now.

>How-To-Repeat:

The following will eventually (but not always) re-produce the error.  If 
need I have a .core file and ktrace output just mail me if you wish me to
provide them.

#define _REENTRANT

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <pthread.h>

void *
message(void *arg)
{
        printf("thread success\n");
        return (void *) 0;
}

int
main(int argc, char **argv)
{
        int e;
        pthread_t tid;

        e = pthread_create(&tid, NULL, message, (void *) 0);


        if (e) {
                printf("failed create\n");
                return EXIT_FAILURE;
        }

        e = pthread_join(tid, NULL);

        if (e) {
                printf("failed join\n");
                return EXIT_FAILURE;
        }

        printf("success\n");

        return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
