Ken,
I believe I found the bugs in the ST classes. I also changed one of the tests to force a large number of threads on ST.

Please verify my changes,

Bill

I have seen this problem before. I suspect that we are not using ar properly. I have added an rm bin/*.a to the nightly for this platform.

As I mentioned before, caleb has 10 processers. I was able to get the test to crash on the 4 processor kulu when I set the number of threads to 6 or higher. You'll see that they are crashing in some CopyData call.
