Although gcc compiles them ok, but through the course of debugging, the threads behaves weirdly and gdb couldn't debug those threads. Has the new FreeBSD 6.0 resolved this issue? I read the errata and release notes, couldn't found the details I need, but I saw in the release notes that the kernel debugger has improved. Not sure if this is the same thing that caused my problem. Best regards, Sam
