Sorry again, I was confusing 3 problems after two long days.  It's the
active (unpaused) thread which would be calling _context() of course.

In any case, thank you for the reply.  I know what to test now...


Another problem, which I think I'm repeating from an earlier discussion:

- TID_HASH() fails if several ldap_pvt_thread_t bit patterns can
  represent the same thread ID, e.g. if it is a struct/integer type with
  padding bytes/bits.

  It might be better to let TID_HASH cast the ID to an unsigned integer
  type and hash that.  Then it won't compile if ldap_pvt_thread_t is a
  struct, so we get a warning in _some_ cases when it can break.
