Answer 1

I had the same issue: In my case, the cause apparently was:

• two singletons,
• each of whom had a pointer to the other,
• in its designated initializer.

Like a figure eight, initializing #1 led to initializing the other (#2), which lead to an attempt to initialize #1 again -- but as a singleton, this (at least, I conjecture that this) meant blowing away the memory address that had the thread - like going back in time and causing your parents to never meet. So the thread was lost without even an error, just a hang.
