------- Comment #1 from mrowe at apple.com  2007-10-25 05:56 PDT -------
What is happening here is that webkit_init calls DatabaseTracker::tracker to
retrieve the DatabaseTracker singleton to set the database path.  The
DatabaseTracker constructor allocates a SQLDatabase, which in turn allocates a
Mutex.  All of this happens without WebCore calling initializeThreading.  The
Gtk port could work around this by calling initializeThreading from
webkit_init, but WebCore should be doing this itself before doing anything
thread-related (this includes allocating mutexes).
