>> A race condition exists, in the test  StressNativeSignal, due to the setting of a condition variable, shouldTerminate, in the main thread’s invocation of UDPThread::terminate and the setting of shouldTerminate in the main run method of UDPThread.  A similar scenario exists for the ServerSocketThread.  The variable shouldTerminate is a member variable, and is by default set to false, so the setting to false in the run methods is not required. Removing shouldTerminate = false; statement mitigates the race condition.

>> It is noted in passing the ServerSocket::run method contains a redundant while loop for reading from an established connection stream, which is never created. This code is never reached as there is no peer to connect to the ServerSocket and the test is on the ServerSocket::accept method.
