When testing boost.log for race conditions using valgrind drd, some non initialized condition variables are reported at initialization time. I am using Valgrind-3.6.0.SVN and gcc version 4.4.4 (Debian 4.4.4-1). These are the valgrind error messages: ==27651== condition variable has not been initialized: cond 0x6174420 ==27651== at 0x4C267B9: pthread_cond_broadcast@* (drd_pthread_intercepts.c:756) ==27651== by 0x66DBCD2: ???
