Marcus,

I did what you recommended but my knowledge of GDB doesn't let me
interpret what I get to find the probably cause of the problem.

Instead of sending output of GDB I'm sending simple python script so
every interested person can see what doesn't work. Inside the script
there is one message source and one message sink.
The source sends one message to the sink. At the end the program should
exit but it doesn't.

Best Regards,
Piotr Krysik
