Yes but what i was referring to is the test the checks for NPTL vs Linux threads. That test is/was broken and i don't remember off hand if they by accident (using gcc) got it right or not on a NPTL system. I now for certain that using non GCC compilers the test fails horribly and gets it completely wrong. (Unless they have fixed it since i tried on 1.0 and early 1.1 and 1.2) I did send a patch but i have yet to see it being included. -- Ake Sandgren, HPC2N, Umea University, S-90187 Umea, Sweden Internet: a...@hpc2n.umu.se Phone: +46 90 7866134 Fax: +46 90 7866126 Mobile: +46 70 7716134 WWW: http://www.hpc2n.umu.se
