Because in the instances I *do* use plain RPM, is *also* locks up.  It
never locks up when using apt or yum, now that I think on it - just
plain rpm and the redhat-install-packages utility.  I never use up2date,
since it refuses to work w/ Rawhide, only the Severn beta, which isn't
what I want.

I've not found a pattern of crashes and lockups.  More often, I'll
install a couple packages just fine (usually using
redhat-install-packages) and then go to install a another, and get the
lockup.

elanthis@stargrazer:~$ getconf GNU_LIBPTHREAD_VERSION
NPTL 0.57

Running the latest Rawhide.  Problem has existed ever since I installed
Redhat, version 8.0, after switching from Debian.
