Synopsis: Xserver triggers threading problem

Responsible-Changed-Why:
1.) XFree86's signal handling code does *not* cause this. It will not
    unblock SIGIO from a the SIGIO signal handler.
2.) The X11 server is stuck in "libpthread" also it is not linked against
    that library which is *really* suspicious.
3.) Even if XFree86 is completely broken it should not lock up the kernel.

I'm moving this bug to category port-sparc64 because that's the platform
it has been observered on. And that platform has unfortunately a history
of bugs in the SA code.
