The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 3713 Logged by: Ted Petrosky Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PostgreSQL version: 8.3 beta 2 Operating system: OS X 10.5 Description: problem with thread safety??? Details:
whilst configuring on a new Leopard install with this config line: ./configure --with-bonjour --enable-thread-safety --with-perl --with-python --with-libedit-preferred checking for sgmlspl... no checking thread safety of required library functions... no configure: error: thread test program failed This platform is not thread-safe. Check the file 'config.log'for the exact reason. You can use the configure option --enable-thread-safety-force to force threads to be enabled. But you must then run the program in src/test/thread and add locking function calls to your applications to guarantee thread safety. I have never seen this before on OS X and I don't really know if it is a limitation or a bug.
