+ o Minor bugfixes:
+ - Testsuite: In the util/threads test no longer free the test_mutex
+ before all worker threads have finished.
+ - Testsuite: The master thread could starve the worker threads quite
+ badly on certain systems, causing them to run only partially in
+ the allowed window. This resulted in test failures. Now the master
+ thread sleeps occasionally for a few microseconds while the two
+ worker-threads compete for the mutex.
