Howmany system mutexes a process can hold?

Hi all,
I dont know, in which group to post my query, that is why I am cross
posting.

I have a multi threaded process which is crashing in malloc related
functions(_smalloc). If I look at the "truss" output of the process,
it fails in the mutex operations. Is there any upper limit on number
of system(kernel) mutexes a process can hold? Is it some kind of Dead
Lock prevention algorithm that is killing my process. In that case
does it give a core dump (segmentation fault SIGSEGV) because my
process is giving a core dump. And my observation is in the truss
output the hex address it's passing to the _mutex_ function is same
everytime it crashed.(I didnt restart the system. So the kernel mutex
address is same.) And sometimes I have 4 instances of the
process(multi threaded) running simultaneously and few instances will
crash and the truss o/p shows the hex address passed to _mutex_
functions are same before the process crashed.
Could anyone help me in this regard?
Thanks in anticipation.
Sreenivas T.

Not if you keep posting the same question and disregarding advice
you received.
