: 1) Put back -pthread in -current so all the ports don't fail

I've been thinking about just doing that, but was holding off to make
sure people had a chance to do this in the absense of dragging out a
big stick.

: 2) I will build a full set of -current packages with the -pthread

: be fixed (in fact I already have this, see
: http://dosirak.kr.freebsd.org/errorlogs).

: 3) You, John Birrell, and whoever else is interested in fixing these

: appropriate.
: 
: 4) It is likely that steps 2 and 3 will need to be iterated several
: times, because there are dozens of ports that need to be fixed, and
: many of them are hiding other ports that depend on them and also need
: to be fixed.

I think this is an excellent plan.
