I have a couple of questions then. The code relies heavily on the use of __spin_lock operations, however they are mach specific. Is there a standard internal iterface to locks in glibc? Otherwise most of the code already has to be moved into under sysdeps/mach. Also what is the difference between sysdeps/generic/ and pthread/ subdirs. They both contain system independent code. Igor
