the port in question is in /usr/ports/devel/pth and is GNU Pthreads.2.0
I assumed that the mod_php4 port automaticly did the right thing; it tries to install GNU pthreads, but that install fails with the error messages i reported. So if anyone's confused it's the mod_php4 port...
If GNU Pthreads isn't really necessary then I still need a way to convince mod_php4 that it does not need GNU Pthreads.
I think I've read that GNU Pthreads have some differences that might make some progs require it, but I'm not sure. Anyone knows about this?
ports/devel/pth are "GNU Portable Threads" which implements threading support using a common interface for all systems. php4 requires this for working with apache2 (what is declared as "experimental"). Because of apache2 and php4 work under unix and windows (os/2, beos, ...), at least mod_php4 might require sth. like pth for having the same interface to a thread library on all systems.
I know this doesn't help you, but may give some clearance.
So long, Jens

I think you're confused about the need for this pthreads port (I can't find a 'pthreads' port anyway).."pthreads" means "posix threads" which are supported by the FreeBSD base system (libc_r). The php4 port should automatically do the right thing.
