I have a SCO 5.0.4 system with most of the contents of the Skunkware
2000 CD (FSU Threads, GNU development tools), as well as, the official
patches from SCO/Caldera. I have the SCO Development System installed
but not licensed, so the includes and libs are available.

    The MySQL binary release is linked against 5.0.6 and won't run
because of library version differences.

    I have tried to build using the options detailed in INSTALL-SOURCE.
I tried various other combinations of options too. All stop at one spot.

    The error comes in the 'mysys' directory while compiling
test_thr_alarm. The error is an unrecognized symbol 'pthread_sigmask'.
This appears to be a macro that is defined in ../include/my_pthread.h at
any one of a number of spots depending on your system.

    What switch am I missing?

    I noticed that the ./configure output has a strange output:

checking for SCO threads........3
yes
yes

rather than
checking for SCO threads........yes

I hope that this is enough info. I would settle for a binary compiled
for 5.0.4, but prefer to fix this so that I can keep with the current
patch level.
