Emmanuel,

I have submitted a patch earlier
that fixes the missing dump at program exit.
You wrote that you are not going to put into the 3.0 stable release,
but only into the new development releases. Have you done that?

If it is done, I recommend to use the development release
for those who is having the missing dump problem.

For everybody, just read my previous postings
on the semantics of the asynchronous signal
delivery mechanism to the POSIX threads.
I am not going to repeat myself here.

Bests,
Attila
