Ok, maybe it isn't some ABI change inside libpthread. Can it maybe be that we have two "versions" of libpthread.so.2 now, one that was compiled and like to be linked to libc.so.6 and one that like to be linked to libc.so.7? So if you now try to run an older threaded app (one that was compiled with libc.so.6 and libpthread.so.2, like what would happen in FreeBSD-6) on -current, it would try to use the new libpthread.so.2 that was build against libc.so.7, but try to link it with libc.so.6 and then crash and burn? Maybe when libc gets bumped all other libs have to be bumped too? John -- John Hay -- John.Hay@meraka.csir.co.za / jhay@FreeBSD.org
