OK, the backtraces helped a lot. Thread 6 hit the assertion while trying to 
close the connection, and thread 5 was already trying to close the connection. 
And Thread 5 was waiting for thread 2 to wake up and give up the connection 
handle. Seems like a bug in connection.c, aggravated by the presence of 
persistent searches on the connection.
