I can corroborate what Sean is saying. There is definitely something wrong with KSE on amd64 (I haven't tried it on i386.) I've been chasing it down, on-and-off, for about a month, but have come up with nothing so far. gnome-terminal and xmms are two examples of applications that have gone from unusable to usable after changing from libpthread to libc_r. Mozilla may also be affected, but I'm less sure of that. The applications in question just mysteriously vanish, sometimes with signal 10 or 11, sometimes with no signal in the kernel log at all. Tim
