I replaced libc_r with libthr and two things happen: One of my threads doesn't run, and it won't die (kill -9 doesn't even kill it) I replaced libc_r with libpthread and it immediately reboots the system! I am going to try to nail down just what and why this happens and post that. (reminder: even if this change happened in 3.4, it didn't affect me till 5.5) _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
