But that *is* the deadlock -

ILLockWord
CompareAndExchangeObjectLockWord(ILExecThread *thread,

...
        /* Lockdown the monitor hashtable */
      
ILMutexLock(thread->process->monitorSystemLock);

       lockWordPtr = GetObjectLockWordPtr(thread,
obj);


GetObjectLockWordPtr waits on the same lock *after*
it has been locked by the statement above.

See log attached :)
