Brian,

Are you sure you unblocked the signals in the main OpenSSH thread? Here's the
work-around I added in MyProxy for this Globus pthr library issue:

http://lists.globus.org/pipermail/myproxy-commit/2010-June/000429.html

Of course MyProxy is much simpler than OpenSSH. The fact that the OpenSSH
server forks multiple processes per incoming connection may mean that you need
work-arounds in multiple places.

The Globus pthr libraries are simply not designed for applications that don't
use the Globus threading API, which is why I've always recommended use of
non-pthr Globus libraries with GSI-OpenSSH.
