Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This, I imagine will be a bit of good news :-)
I had to do some severely ugly hacking to get configure past the well-known sigaltstack problem, but once I was able to do this, I was able to compile pth using the following configure switches: ./configure --with-mctx-mth=sjlj --with-mctx-dsp=sjljlx \ --with-mctx-stk=none --enable-pthread What we are doing here is taking advantage of the fact that pth provided for the 2.0 linux kernel which did not have functioning sigstack or sigaltstack, to the mctx-dsp=sjljlx was an i386 dependant hack around the problem. My hypothesis was the Hurd-i386 would be similar enough that this would work. I was able to compile pth and it passed its self-tests all OK. Certainly further testing is in order, and I will attempt to make a Hurd-friendly patch for pth and get it posted asap. - Doug
