As luck would have it, just as I was collecting the data, there was a major explosion. Box was slogging through glibc make check, and when it hit the mutex tests in nptl, KaBOOM. Ding-dong-dead box... [reboot] oh my, seems repeatable. Guess I'll see if I can find my serial console cable instead of typing make install as originally planned :)

Oopsen attached. First two times it exploded on tst-mutex7, this time that passed, but it exploded on tst-mutex7a.

Further datapoint: on a lark, I tried 8k stacks, and my symptoms changed - tst-mutex7 never failed, but running tst-mutex7a in a tight loop crashed the box reliably though differently. I then recompiled with no debug options enabled, and ran all mutex tests in a loop for a couple of hours with no crash.
