--- Comment #3 from Jan Palus <[email protected]> ---
Let me put it in context.

There is one app bitten in the past by the fact that shared libraries it was
linked with created new threads in constructors prior to main(). Those
libraries created threads recklessly without blocking signals which in turn
lead to misbehaving whole application. New sanity check was introduced as a
first step of main() checking, based on /proc entries (if available), if there
are any threads without blocked all signals. As you can imagine if there is
additional thread with all signals blocked the check would pass if run without
valgrind but fails otherwise.

I'm not aware of any API to achieve the goal in a cleaner fashion and that
would work with valgrind but perhaps you have some suggestions.
