I hope there are people using/testing/developing rthreads out there who can
explain to me why
syscall getthrid fails with SIGSYS on my system, 4.1-release.

1. I have RTHREADS defined in my kernel. I have checked that the
rthread code is included at compile time, and I also tried this:

$ grep getthrid /bsd
Binary file /bsd matches

2. The code I'm trying to run: 
http://www.nabble.com/file/p11287569/rthread.tar rthread.tar 
It may be extremely stupid, but it compiles...

3. I compiled and installed librthread, and copied librthread.so.1.0 in
place of libpthread.so.7.0
My program is linked against libpthread:

$ ldd rthtest                                                                  
rthtest:
        Start    End      Type Open Ref GrpRef Name
        00000000 00000000 exe  1    0   0      rthtest
        0bd7c000 2bd85000 rlib 0    1   0      /usr/lib/libpthread.so.7.0
        0cde0000 2ce14000 rlib 0    1   0      /usr/lib/libc.so.40.3
        00466000 00466000 rtld 0    1   0      /usr/libexec/ld.so

4. Output and info:

$ ./rthtest

Did I do something extremely wrong when I tried to switch to rthreads? Do I
need to recompile
lots of things?

Don't point me to using the regular libpthread, I have good reason to try
rthreads.

Also....don't use this post to start a troll-inducing thread about
performance, scalability 
and/or personal opinions about threads and their usage. Reply with useful
information or shut up.
