I've run into pthread snafus before and until a minute ago have been able to work around them. This time (with glib-1.2.2) nope. I could probably comment my way around stuff and get it to work...but no time right now. glib12 with the no-threads configure option doesn't get very far due to missing (or undefined) functions... thanks, Brett; later on, gary -- Gary D.
