I was archiving the revised test from 5003341 when I ran it on Mustang/6.0
bits instead of on Tiger/1.5.0 bits. To my surprise, the test crashed. Here
are snippets from the doit logs from both product and fastdebug bits:

The testcase is attached as testcase.tgz. The various logs are attached as logs.tgz.
Also reproduced with Dolphin-B11 bits. Looks like the same crash
and assertion failure, but I didn't generate thread dumps and stuff.
The failure does not reproduce with Tiger/1.5.0_08 bits on my laptop
or with Tiger/1.5.0_12 bits on producer.
