>Description:

When pthread_mutex_unlock(3) is called with a new mutex, it dumps core
with the following error message.  Many gtk2 appliations are affected.

test: Error detected by libpthread: Unlocking unlocked mutex.
Detected by file "/usr/src/lib/libpthread/pthread_mutex.c", line 340, function "pthread_mutex_unlock".
See pthread(3) for information.
Abort (core dumped)

>How-To-Repeat:

Save the following program as test.cc and run as follows.

gcc -pthread -o test test.c
./test

test.cc--------------------------------------------------
#include <pthread.h>

int main()
{
  pthread_mutex_t m = PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER;
  pthread_mutex_unlock (&m);
  return 0;
}
