That's a bug in how new threads are created.  More or less, it always  
creates two.  I have a fix, but it's for 2.3.12, not 2.2.12.

signal 6 is SIGABRT, which is what happens when abort() is called,  
i.e., like an assert() failed.  Have you tried 2.2.13?  At least  
that's the latest in the 2.2.x line.
