One very important group of ports that should get looked at when this gets worked out is KDE. Apparently, Qt uses a different means of determining wether to use threading, than the ports that depend on it. The qt-using ports appear to check for -lpthread, then c++ -pthread, and if neither of those checks pass, disable threading: checking for pthread_create in -lpthread... no checking whether c++ supports -pthread... no However, Qt somehow knows that threads are supported and installs the libqt-mt version of it's libraries. The dependant ports then look for -lqt, not -lqt-mt, since they've disabled threading. I haven't updated my gcc since -pthread started working again, and this doesn't generate the typical "-pthread is deprecated" error, so I've been pulling my hair out for two days over it :) --Mike
