Yes, that's a known problem with the stable version of valgrind.  Unless
it manages to intercept every blocking function, it can deadlock all the
threads.

I've attached a patch I used to fix this once, but I don't think it
applies any more.  You might be able to tweak it into a working form.

The current development version fixes this by changing all the syscall
handling so that they're allowed to block.
