I don't know, I think it might be premature to do that. I still think that it's a bad idea to unconditionally include libpthread on Solaris builds in cases where HPSA is not enabled, which would be (relatively) rare situations because HPSA is not the default for Solaris. The effects of this should at least be tested first, before releasing to the general populace. I vollunteer to do this on Solaris 8. Unfortuanately, I just ditched my only 2.6 box, so testing the effects on there would have to be done by someone else. Also, I think that since 1.3.9, the 1.3 tree has suffered from enough "oops" releases to warrant maybe acumulating a few more fixes, then testing, and then releasing. I do believe time is on our side for this one and shouldnt be rushed so soon in the wake of .23. imho, /dale
