pthread_join hang on glibc2.5
Hello All,
The problem i'm experiencing is with the following code:

#include <pthread.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
(void) pthread_join(155555, NULL);
printf("done");
return 0;
}

I'm getting on terminal segmentation fault .
System used: CentOS release 5 (Final)

Compiled on a Linux 2.6.9 system on 2007-03-14.

pthread_join according to the man should return ERROR in case the thread doesn't exist.

I checked the same code on Red Hat 9 ,2.4.20-31.9, gcc 3.4.3 and GLIBC 2.3.2 and the code returns Error code as expected.

This looks to me as very common use of pthread_join and yet i can't find reference on the web about this error, nor bug listed.

Can someone help ?
