I've learnt a lot about threads recently, made some little programs to
play with it, and had a lot of crashes with them.

I've already encountered the problems you describe, that is: segfault
when program exits (only sometimes), and all runs ok when run in a gdb.

I did solve them by being careful to stop properly all threads before
the main one exits. That was a timing problem: one of my little threads
called a function in the main thread, which didn't exist anymore.

Perhaps this helps,
