Attached CalcAddinThr.patch solves the problem.  You inadvertently 
registered the libCalcAddinThr.so UNO component both the old, active way 
(by calling regcomp, which calls your component_writeInfo) and the new, 
passive way (by providing a *.component file).  You may want to also 
remove the obsolete component_writeInfo implementation from your 
CalcAddinThr_impl.cxx.  (In order to test your code, I also needed an 
explicit include of unistd.h for read(2), and drop some apparently dead 
copy/paste stuff that caused additional compilation errors; I simply 
included those changes in the attached patch.)
