Description
I have been puzzled by why the last test in t/pmc/threads.t (number 14 at last count) fails on all the NetBSD systems I'm testing on.
It turns out that the reason is that this particular test causes parrot to call dlclose() twice with the same handle value, and ld.elf_so has a check for whether the given handle is "valid", which it isn't in the second instance, causing spurious output from the test, which in turns causes the test to fail, like so:
not ok 14 - CLONE_CODE|CLONE_GLOBALS|CLONE_HLL|CLONE_LIBRARIES - TT \# 1250 # Failed test 'CLONE_CODE|CLONE_GLOBALS|CLONE_HLL|CLONE_LIBRARIES - TT \# 1250' # at t/pmc/threads.t line 831. # got: 'in thread: # 0 # ok (equal) # 42 # in main: # 0 # ok (equal) # 42 # Invalid shared object handle 0xeffed600 # ' # expected: 'in thread: # 0 # ok (equal) # 42 # in main: # 0 # ok (equal) # 42 # ' # Looks like you failed 1 test of 14.
The following GDB session shows that this is the problem:

Note that the handle= value in the call preceding dlclose() is the same in the two cases.
Parrot should not be calling dlclose() with the same handle value in a row, without the second one being the result of a dlopen(), which isn't the case here. OK, that's not proven by the above, but this one does:
