Dear All,

Question about libraries: I notice that java is linked against libc,
should that not be libc_r? Isn't libc_r the reentrant version of libc?

I'm not too up to date with the whole threading business in C, and of
course that's precisely where I'm stuck with on NetBSD. It seems
that ucontext.h is missing in NetBSD.

I thought that I could install GNU PTh to get a userland thread
library to use, but it does not include ucontext.h. What's ucontext.h
for? Where can I find some documentation on it? Who knows a lot about
threading and the JDK implementation?

  Enjoy,
    Kees Jan
