On FreeBSD, this was due to realpath not being thread-safe. It called chdir() internally and didn't prevent other threads from calling chdir() or getcwd() at the same time. NetBSD's realpath looks almost identical to the old FreeBSD code, so it should be easy to fix by just merging the fix from FreeBSD. http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/src/lib/libc/gen/getcwd.c http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/lib/libc/stdlib/realpath.c The FreeBSD fix is in rev 1.14. -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
