Thanks Stas and Michael, I guess I'll have to recompile perl with ithreads.
I'll probably have two perl builds, since I don't want threads in my
standard perl.

It'd be much better if somebody could figure out what the problem is with non-threaded builds and fix it.


Stas, I didn't realize this was a bug, I figured this was more likely a
configuration problem on my end.

It doesn't matter, the bug report includes all the information about your environment, including the configuration parameters. And without having those we can't tell what your problem is, whether it's a bug in mp or your configuration problem.


Anyway, I have thoroughly scoured this
list, google, and the mod_perl site for any and all information on this
subject (OSX, jaguar, mp2, mod_perl) and have turned up nothing but
mp1-related issues. Now that I know the solution I can easily find the
relevant posts. It would be particularly helpful if there were a "known
bugs" page at perl.apache.org (is there one? I can't find it).

It's in the STATUS file. Under 'Platforms on which mod_perl won't build/load'. I will add an entry on osx as soon as somebody tells me the exact details, besides requiring -Dusethreads. Michael has mentioned -lc -lm...


It would be
even more useful if Eric Cholet's information you gave me below was
available on the "OS-specific Info" mp2 page:

http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/os/index.html

You know, secretly I hope that the frustration will make someone, with osx knowledge, fix the problem. So instead of advertising the workaround, I'd rather see it fixed. However if the general opinion is that we want to make the workaround more visible, we can do that as well.


Another solution to this problem is to use the static build, which is incomplete yet. If someone wants to do that, patches are *very* welcome.
