I'm just a bit over my head, but that's how I'll learn, right? I've gotten the -current version to build and install, but I've found 2 problems so far: gkrellm loads and cannot resolve the symbol _flockfile. Also, a build of xmms (which uses threads) fails in configure because it cannot find pthreads support. I'd like to solve this myself, but I need a little push in the right direction. Could someone give me a hint? Is it simply a matter of undefining functions that are not present in -stable? NOTE: Please CC me, as I am not currently subscribed.
