I got this same problem when I upgraded to 5.3-Beta, but for me it was with gnucash, not xmms. (I don't use XMMS, so I don't know if that port would break for me as well).
I searched the archives and it seems the problem comes from a program using one threading system (pthreads) but having a dependancy compiled against the other system ((libc_r). The solution is either to 1) recompile all your ports to use the same threading system, or 2) map all calls to one system to another using /etc/libmap.conf.
However, I tried *both* of these and neither work. I've used ldd on everything under /usr/local and nothing is linked to libc_r (although many are linked to pthread). I've tried recompiling all the requirements of gnucash using portupgrade -fR. I've also tried mapping the libc_r calls to pthread calls using an /etc/libmap.conf file:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /# cat /etc/libmap.conf
libc_r.so.5 libpthread.so.1 # Everything that uses 'libc_r'
libc_r.so libpthread.so # now uses 'libpthread'
Yet I'm still getting the error. I can only assume that something is broken in 5.3-BETA regarding pthreads unless someone has any other insight. I'm hitting my head against a wall. beh.

I cvsuped last week, on 9 Sept and since then I've installed XMMS and mplayer from the ports and neither one of them work, here are the errors I receive when I try to start them:
XMMS:
Fatal error 'Spinlock called when not threaded.' at line 83 in file /usr/src/lib/libpthread/thread/thr_spinlock.c (errno = 0)
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
mplayer:
Fatal error 'Spinlock called when not threaded.' at line 83 in file /usr/src/lib/libpthread/thread/thr_spinlock.c (errno = 0)
Abort trap (core dumped)
I'm not sure if this is a new feature in 5 or a debugging problem or what. Does anyone have any help they can offer?
