On Linux, the call stack at the second call to the destructor is:
#0 ~coo (this=0x41dd10ff) at td.cc:14
#1 0x0000000000400b1b in foo (pntr=0x7ffff4705fff) at td.cc:26
#2 0x00007f8cec2d43ea in start_thread () from /lib/libpthread.so.0
#3 0x00007f8ceb897cbd in clone () from /lib/libc.so.6
#4 0x0000000000000000 in ?? ()
This does not happen on Cygwin (breakpoint hit only once)
I wonder if this thread is related ?
