[gambit-list] Deadlock problem

I can't figure out why this deadlocks on me (I'm using beta 14):

(let ((x (open-vector)))
  (thread-start! (make-thread (lambda () (write 1 x))))
  (thread-start! (make-thread (lambda () (write 2 x))))
  (read x)
  (read x))
*** ERROR IN ##thread-deadlock-action! -- Deadlock detected

Shouldn't this run to completion (possibly blocking at times to wait
for the writes), and return either 2 or 1?
