First pass at GnuStep under Debian [pthreads]
Ok-- I applied the required patch to the debianized version of the gcc
2.7.2.1 source... unfortunately, it wouldn't build because it uses
<pthreads.h>.
Under Debian, /usr/include/pthread.h requires _MIT_POSIX_THREADS to be
defined to do anything useful. Equally as unfortunate, it appears that the
_MIT_POSIX_THREADS package that is included with debian isn't current or
isn't compatible with 'normal' pthreads? At least, when I attempted to
build python 1.4 with threading support, the MIT_POSIX_THREADS package
caused python to consistently crash-- I don't know why.
Anyway, I need a more conformat implementation of pthreads [likely] to
build gcc 2.7.2.1 w/the thread support patch. Has anyone done any work on a
more recent release of pthreads? Or, can someone correct my ignorance such
that I can correctly use what is installed?
Thanks,
b.bum
