../common/pipes.cpp (528) : Assertion Failed

After the TF2 updates recently, my servers started spamming the console with:

Code:

../common/pipes.cpp (528) : Assertion Failed: m_OutstandingCallbackThreadId != ThreadGetCurrentId()
Assert( Assertion Failed: m_OutstandingCallbackThreadId != ThreadGetCurrentId() ):../common/pipes.cpp:528

../common/pipes.cpp (528) : Assertion Failed: m_OutstandingCallbackThreadId != ThreadGetCurrentId()

After some trial-and-error, I decided to disable the SteamTools extension (i.e. move all the steamtools stuff out of the extensions folder) and restart the server, and those errors stopped.

I seem to recall this happened a few years ago? and required some recompile of the extension to resolve?

I'm my case, I am running my TF2 servers under Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (64-bit) with the latest (TF2, like I have a choice) and all the latest Ubuntu updates as of today).
