Bernd Schmidt found/fixed this problem in uClibc: http://blackfin.uclinux.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=882&group_id=17&atid=141 Basically, the uClinux dist includes a few thread demos - thdm and bcdm - running them simultaneously sometimes causes bus errors.

This patch was made against our cvs, which has an older version of uClibc in it - this code was recently moved from internals.h to descr.h in the uclibc svn, but it still has the same problem
