FreeBSD 6.1, the default is libthr uses process scope, but I know
mysql explicitly uses system scope thread unless you forced it
to use process scope(there is a knob in the ports's Makefile).
if the mysql uses system scope (the default), you should see
the same effect with libpthread, i.e you said it starved your
server.
