See if you can find __rpc_thread_svc_cleanup

I had to trace through some of that code a while ago to track down an
SELinux issue.  I reported that one:

        http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5010

I can't see why the thing I reported and your problem should be related,
but it seems like enough of a coincidence to mention it at least.
