 Just another data point...
 
 Even with the fix for this PR committed, I'm seeing strange behavior 
 from the x11/xlockmore package's xlock image.  In particular, on my 
 Radeon HD 3450 viedo card, all attempts to run "xlock -mode maze" (or 
 any other mode!) results in a call to abort(3), several frames deep in 
 library calls (starting with libGL).  Running the command under ktrace 
 shows that only one lwp/thread exists, however using the work-around 
 mentioned in the PR (setenv RADEON_THREAD FALSE) allows xlock to 
 function normally!
