What does this mean? I tried with vdr-1.3.3. It hangs without LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4. NPTL is more Posix conforming than linuxthreads, so there may be differences in the *behaviour* of some pthread_* functions, and especially in the interaction of threads and signals. But I haven't had time to look into NPTL yet, so I don't know what exactly could be the problem. But the SIGIO stuff in vdr/thread.c could be the culprit...
