Hi,
Your package is failing to build on most arches with the
following error:
../../heaplayers/spinlock.h:231:2: #error "No spin lock
implementation is available for this platform."
Here is a patch that should add spinlocks for amd64.
But may I suggest you use an alternative way to get spinlocks for
all arches, like for instance those provided by the pthread
library.
