aio problem: consume 100% cpu

[Robert Latham]

Hi

I have an application that makes use of asyncronous IO.  This code
works on x86, x86-64, ppc32, and alpha, so I'm pretty sure we're
calling the async IO routines correctly.  

On ppc64, however, after the async IO completes the application
consumes all available CPU until it exits (and since the application
is a server, that's indefinitely).

A while back someone reported a similar problem with
asyncronous IO:
http://lists.suse.com/archive/suse-programming-e/2004-Sep/0103.html
that url includes a link to "aiotest.c", which demonstrates the problem.

I'm testing on a YDL-4.0 machine with glibc-2.3.3-18.ydl.4

Thanks
