Hi

I seem to be getting problems with some error messages which appear to indicate pth failures.
The system is
8.2-RELEASE GENERIC amd64 on Intel quad core.

I do not understand how pth threads are managed.
1. From ports I have installed
fpc-pthreads-2.6.0
libpthread-stubs-0.3_3
pth-2.0.7
2. I am totally ignorant of what is installed by the kernel or of how to check whether there are any conflicts in the system or the ports.
3. I want to install Jabber which seems to require pth-hard
4. The greatest concerns seem to be around Xorg with kde4 installed
5. Fundamentally I am concerned that something about thread management on this system is fouled up. For example kde4, following a recent upgrade,has taken to not loading.
Would someone be willing to enlighten me a little?
6. To show the my concerns are not without some foundation among the multiple error messages given when kde4 fails to load there is the snippet shown below.
Many thanks for any advice
