Thanks Eberle.

I did a make on the tests within m5threads using my system's regular gcc/g++ 
(for x86), and tried running one of the binaries through M5 in X86_SE mode like 
this:
./build/X86_SE/m5.debug configs/example/se.py 
--cmd=m5threads/tests/test_pthreadsbasic

I get the following error:
Global frequency set at 1000000000000 ticks per second
0: system.remote_gdb.listener: listening for remote gdb #0 on port 7000
**** REAL SIMULATION ****
info: Entering event queue @ 0.  Starting simulation...

[translate:/tmp/tukrishna/m5/build/X86_SE/arch/x86/tlb.cc, line 635]
Memory Usage: 578888 KBytes
For more information see: http://www.m5sim.org/panic/d71dd0bc
Program aborted at cycle 467000

Firstly, I hope this this a 'correct' way to run the binaries compiled using 
m5threads through M5?
I tried the same with M5's hello x86 binary and it worked fine.

Looking at the gdb stack, and trace-flags, shows me that the instruction 
MOV_M_R seems to be getting 0 as the address.
And this seems to happen after a bunch of correct address translations, not at 
the beginning of the simulation.

I am not sure if this is a problem with the way I run the binary, an X86_SE 
issue or something else?
I observed that the virtual address being 0 error I get is similar to an error 
discussed a few months back on the users forum?


Thanks!

The m5thread library should be used in the linkage process instead of the
pthread library (for instance: -L$M5THREAD_FOLDER -l$LIB_M5THREAD ).
