My normal builds of coreutils-8.15.74-be17e3 failed on
FreeBSD 9.0 x86 like this:
CCLD sort
sort.o: In function `sortlines':
sort.c:(.text+0x670e): undefined reference to `pthread_create'
I then tried a fresh build:
% set path= ( /bin /usr/bin )
% ./configure --disable-threads && make all check
CCLD sort
sort.o: In function `sortlines':
/local/build/cc/coreutils-8.15.74-be17e3/src/sort.c:3571: undefined
reference to `pthread_create'
*** Error code 1
If threads are disabled, why is sort.c still trying to use them?
I restarted with
% make LIBS=-lthr
That got further, then died with
CCLD timeout
timeout.o: In function `settimeout':
/local/build/cc/coreutils-8.15.74-be17e3/src/timeout.c:118: undefined
reference to `timer_create'
/local/build/cc/coreutils-8.15.74-be17e3/src/timeout.c:120: undefined
reference to `timer_settime'
/local/build/cc/coreutils-8.15.74-be17e3/src/timeout.c:125: undefined
reference to `timer_delete'
I tried again with
% make LIBS=-lpthread
but the same failure occurred.
Yet another try with
% make LIBS='-lpthread -lrt'
still failed; the symbols in -lrt provide these names:
00000100 T __timer_create
000000a0 T __timer_delete
00000060 T __timer_getoverrun
00000080 T __timer_gettime
00000030 T __timer_oshandle
00000040 T __timer_settime
At that point, I quit trying.
