As has been mentioned before, the (kernel) semaphore implementation in -current doesn't work well. In pkgsrc Python, use of semaphores was disabled because threaded Python scripts didn't work. I also found that disabling semaphore use in gcc/libgomp fixes crashes of programs using OMP (eg darktable). It worked with userland semaphores until NetBSD-6, so I'd wait for a resolution before burning bridges. best regards Matthias ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Forschungszentrum Juelich GmbH 52425 Juelich Sitz der Gesellschaft: Juelich Eingetragen im Handelsregister des Amtsgerichts Dueren Nr.
