** Description changed:

  [impact]
  
  under some circumstances, libjemalloc2 hangs on arm64 architecture.
  
  [test case]
  
  the mariadb-10.1 autopkgtests, specifically when apt installing mariadb-
  server-10.1, will hang.  It's possible the apt install mariadb-
  server-10.1 hangs outside the autopkgtests as well, but the test
  regression is very reproducable, e.g.:
  
  http://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/m/mariadb-10.1/cosmic/arm64
  
  note the failures for version 1:10.1.38-0ubuntu0.18.10.1
  
  [regression potential]
  
  this patch is already included in disco and later; regression potential
  should be low.  Regressions would likely result in more/different hangs.
  
  [other info]
  
- this patch is already included in disco/eoan, and bionic and earlier
- have a very different/older version of jemalloc, and don't need this
- patch.
+ this patch is already included in disco/eoan.
+ 
+ In bionic and earlier, jemalloc does not hook the _Unwind_Backtrace
+ function.  This hook appears to be what introduces the problem, and
+ jemalloc only starts hooking the function in cosmic.
