And again, you can't comment on problems with threading under sparc64 because KSE doesn't work there until "someone steps up" and makes it work. I've been using libpthread under x86 without seeing any of the problems you are describing. I'm not discounting your problems, but your advocating removal of KSE when it's been very functional for a long time is very unjust. -- DE
