Are you really sure about this big > difference between egcs & gcc ? A quick scan of the 2.8.1 source leads me to believe that this is only for objective-c thread support. We are successfully using gcc 2.8.1 with threads in a fairly complex project, didn't need to use 'enable-threads'. However we did need to patch both gcc and libc_r source to handle exceptions (see the archives for my patches). -- Steve Passe | powered by smp@csn.net | Symmetric MultiProcessor FreeBSD To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
