I can't reproduce this problem on my machine -- step-4 runs just fine and 
produces the expected output. But I'm running a straight linux box, not 
anything under vmware or similar.

The main thread is blocked in this function, waiting for the other threads to 
termine. But inside gdb you can look at what threads are running if you do
  info threads
and you can switch to individual threads using
  thread 4
for example. There you can get a backtrace, go up and down in the call tree, 
etc. Can you find out where things hang?

Best
