Well, our current glibc needs file http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/i386/i386/sys_machdep.c at least in revision 1.92.2.2 or 1.97. Stock freebsd 5.4 does not have it, because: RELENG_5_4_0_RELEASE 1.92.2.1.2.1 RELENG_5_5_BP 1.92.2.4 RELENG_6_BP 1.102 So you have to wait for FreeBSD 5.5 or use just released FreeBSD 5.5-RC1. Of cource FreeBSD 6.0 or newer will also have it. You can also built your own glibc with "--without-__thread" and use stock FreeBSD 5.4. It would allow you to run single threaded programs. But for multi threaded programs you need newer sys_machdep.c and at least clone_signals.diff applied. > > Besides, I have another question. Has the GNU/kFreeBSD kernel been changed? Yes, see http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/glibc-bsd/trunk/kfreebsd-5/debian/patches/ http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/glibc-bsd/trunk/kfreebsd-6/debian/patches/ http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/glibc-bsd/trunk/kfreebsd-7/debian/patches/ Petr -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
