+Subject: [PATCH] PATCH [perl #106212] Add PL_perlio_mutex to
+ atfork_lock/unlock
+
+Using threads + fork() on Linux, and IO operations in the threads, the
+PL_perlio_mutex may be left in a locked state at the call of fork(),
+potentially leading to deadlock in the child process at subsequent IO
+operations. (Threads are pre-empted and not continued in the child
+process after the fork.)
+
+Therefore, ensure that the PL_perlio_mutex is unlocked in the child
+process, right after fork(), by using atfork_lock/unlock.
+
+(The RT text gives ways to reproduce the problem, but are not easily
+added to Perl's test suite)
