Your statement is rather speculative stuff. Other systems (say > Linux) are using the same linker we are. Please speculate less. Please > grab an older ld and try to prove your speculation.

Linux also has pthreads symbols weakly defined (some of them are defined in glibc, some of them in libpthread) and does not have such problems. /fjoe To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
