2002-02-18 Thread Ulrich Eckhardt
Hello all! I have made some more attempts to compile (not yet link!) the run-translater using C++. In difference to what I said before, it is not just hurd, but also other packages that prevent this, namely libc0.2 and gnumach. Therefore, I won't just sit still and wait for pthreads. Summary o
