I believe that it's primarily a performance issue. Threaded applications are linked with -lcma -lc_r. Non threaded applications are linked with -lc. If only the dce thread model was used, there probably would be issues with the GTHREADS interface due to the lack of weak symbols. libc.sl doesn't have dce thread stubs. So, all applications would have to be linked as threaded applications. > I suppose one way to fix this would be to somehow make the autoconf checks for > the _r functions fail if the prototypes are not found? I'm wondering if the backend should always define _REENTRANT on HP-UX 10. I'd have to check that all the *_r functions are in libc. For libraries that don't explicitly need thread support, it would be good if they could be linked into both threaded and non threaded applications. Dave
