At this point, I'm wondering if there was some change in codegen that is causing an implicit allocation that didn't occur before.  It's a long shot though, since the code in question is mostly pointer assignments and the like (maybe a foreach loop or two).  I've had a delay getting the VM up (updating made it so the HD wouldn't mount on reboot), but once I do I'm going to look at the asm output of thread_entryPoint and a few other critical areas.

>> Okay, I've made a bunch of changes to how thread initialization and termination is done.  Tested to work on OSX with the deadlock case, but I think only Linux was deadlocking anyway.  I don't have my Linux or Windows VMs handy, so if someone could verify that threads still work on Windows (via the sample in the ticket below) that would be fantastic. I'm building a new Linux VM on this machine to test there.
