We had an earlier experience of an apparent hang in this same test case when 
the build was run in a VM with only one core assigned to it. Given this, it 
would be interesting to know if the test/build system is running a hypervisor 
and how many cores are assigned to the VMs running the builds?

From this thread it seems that the working and broken systems are running the 
same software, and that the build target is x86_64, or is the hang happening 
only on 32-bit target?

Also, sorry if I’m a bit out of sync here, but do you have other configurations 
using GCC 4.6 working in the same hardware where this Ubuntu target is failing?

Regardless, applying this patch may help narrowing down the problem:


If this patch resolves the problem, I would be interested in getting a 
disassembled copy of the tests/test-atomic.o of a failing build (without the 
patch above).
