The problem appears to be related to the timer thread terminating. The problem 
also occurs if you use non-timer thread. The attached program illustrates this. 
If you run it and repeatedly press "return" it usually (not always) hangs when 
the child thread exits.



------------------------------------------
#include <stdio.h>
#include <pthread.h>


void *
athread (void *arg)
{
	sleep (1);
	printf ("exit\n");
	return NULL;
}

int count;
main()
{
    char            cmd [1024];
    char            *pcmd;
    pthread_t       id;

    pthread_create (&id, NULL, athread, NULL);

    printf ("test>");
    while (1)
    {
        pcmd = gets (cmd);
        if (pcmd == NULL)
        {
            printf ("pcmd = NULL\n");
        }
        else
        {
            printf ("test> %d",++count);
        }
    }
    return 0;
}
