Currently, when multi-threads feature meets enospace error,
the main thread will call pthread_join(). However, there is one
thread doing while{} and won't stop.

                pthread_mutex_lock(&info->page_data_mutex);
                while (page_data_buf[index].used != FALSE) {
                        index = (index + 1) % info->num_buffers;
                }
                page_data_buf[index].used = TRUE;
                pthread_mutex_unlock(&info->page_data_mutex);

Then makedumpfile hangs.

This patch add a cancel point in while{}.
