Crashes in __nptl_deallocate_tsd() are symptomatic of invalind dangling
thread key cleanup function (the callback to pthread_key_create()). Most
probably a library registered a thread-local variable with a callback,
then failed to delete the thread-local variable and got unloaded
(dlclose()). This cannot be inside VLC itself.
To find the culprit, someone should put a breakpoint on
pthread_key_create() while running VLC:
gdb vlc
break pthread_key_create
run
continue
You might need to continue several times. One likely culprit is libxml2.
** Changed in: vlc (Ubuntu)
