[bug #35263] libobjc2 can enter a deadlock during dtable initialization

[Morten Hustveit]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #35263 (project gnustep):

I have attached a new test case which deadlocks using GNUstep base classes. 
The program I'm working on triggers this bug 90% of the time (it starts 9
threads at startup and uses many classes), but this small test case only
triggers it about 10% of the time.

You may want to use a bash command line like this to run it until it hangs:

while true; do ./libobjc2-deadlock-2; echo -n .; done

I have run this command line many times, and it has never printed more than 30
dots before hanging.

Note: I'm not entirely sure this test case triggers the exact same bug.
