You really want 5.3 or -current if you want to use libpthread or libthr. With libc_r, no. > in 4.x mostly yes Only with the linuxthreads port. With libc_r, no. Neither libpthread nor libthr are available for 4.x (and won't be). There is no pbind() or processor_bind() (ala Solaris) in FreeBSD (yet).
