>Description:

Running the /usr/tests/lib/libc/sys t_pipe2 test sometimes ends with
a non-exiting zombie process:

12310 ?      Z    0:00.00 (t_pipe2)

This is a new effect, but not always reliably reproducable - race condition
in recent lwp exit changes?


>How-To-Repeat:

cd /usr/tests/lib/libc/sys && atf-run t_pipe2 | atf-report
and watch it hanging sometimes.

>Fix:
no idea
