The linux threads patches are available at http://lt.tar.com/ These patches include modifications to patches previously posted to this list by Brian Feldman. The goals are twofold: 1) Create a port of Linux Threads that can be compiled and used as a kernel threads implementation under FreeBSD. 2) Allow native Linux applications linked against the Linux Threads pthread library (either static or shared libs) to run under FreeBSD in Linux "emulation" mode. The 5 example programs that come with the linux threads source now appear to run correctly in linux emulation mode, as well as in "native" FreeBSD mode when compiled with the linux threads port. In addition, StarOffice 5.0 for Linux appears to install and run without any apparent problems so far. If people are interested in either of the goals above, you would help greatly by installing and testing these patches.
