pthread_create hangs

Hello,

while debugging a multithreaded program i noticed that sometimes! pthread_create() just stops responding - does not return error code, nothing.
what would be the ways to proceed? any ideas what could be possible reasons? The system is newly installed Fedora9

thnx

if (pthread_create(&qmediaplayer_thread, NULL, (void*)&player1_task, NULL)!=0){
return -1;
}

fprintf(stderr,"Player1 thread starts \n");
ind = pthread_create(&qmp_read_thread, NULL,(void *)&player2_task , NULL);

fprintf(stderr,"Player2 thread starts %d\n",ind);

the second pthread_create functions hangs, i.e. second fprintf is not executed...
