I have just gone on the forum to try and an piece together what you might be talking about, but there isn't enough of trail for me to clearly know what code is at issue. Could you please create a small example that illustrates the problem, and a clear explanation of what you think needs changing. For the OSG-3.4 release the most important thing for me is making sure the software build across a full range of linux variants and works stabling. I'm happy for the OSG to go to OSG-3.4 as is, so any additionally changes have to be low risk on build and runtime stability. As a general note, calling things crippled won't change how I view the issue. Many people use the OSG fully threaded under Linux without problems and have done so for years, having some niche feature not work exactly how you expect it for your specific build combination isn't crippled. If there is a bug and it can be reproduce, fixed in a way that doesn't risk build and runtime stability I'll be happy, you don't need the hyperbole.
