thread problem with libc for Linux

Hi,
  I am using RedHat 6.2, gcc 2.95.2(libc.so.6).
  I have a problem runing threads on Linux. I build
the application with the following line:
  g++ -D_REENTRANT -D_UNIX -DXML_LINUX -o tapp \
     testt.c unixfileio.cpp -lpthread
    
  The program is creating a certain number of threads,
then wait for all threads it creates to finish.
  When I create less than 40 threads, everything works
fine. However when I creates more than 40 threads, I
got "Segmentation fault". It doesn't complain any
thing in my program at all. I am sure all the threads
the main thread created are finished and they all have
done their job, the problem here is caused by main
thread exiting. I really don't know what can cause
such problem. The following is the backtrace info
when I created 41 threads.
