As per my observation, in x86_64 first __cxa_guard_aquired() is called and its interceptor calls Initialize().
Initialize() creates background thread.
But in mips64 __interceptor_memset gets called before __cxa_guard_aquire() interceptor. So Initialize() is called from within __intercerptor_memset and REAL(pthread_create) emits a SIGIOT.

@dvyukov I don't know why such behaviour in mips, can you help us with this?
