Strange, this is:

#define SCM_I_CURRENT_THREAD \
  ((scm_i_thread *) scm_i_pthread_getspecific (scm_i_thread_key))

and that key is set in guilify_self_1, called from:

> parent=0xb7440f20) at threads.c:600

It's rather silly that we are guilifying again; presumably the pthread
key was cleared before guile's atexit handler got to run.  I wonder if
that was the proximate cause of this.  What platform are you on?

FWIW, I can't reproduce this on Guile from stable-2.0.

What is the next step here, I wonder?
