The manageable small fix I found and posted in bug 705495 breaks some tests in TBB that would need a read TBB expert to deal with. Considering the fact that the latest version of TBB already has a fix and that that version will make its way into debian-unstable eventually, my take on this is to implement a workaround in MIA. Specifically, on arch powerpc and when compiled with a TBB version before 4.1u2 I set the default number of threads to one, and if someone overrides this default she will get a warning about the probable lockup. I figure that most 32-bit powerpc hardware out there is single core anyway. Best. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
