would a dlsym-based solution be accepted? I.E. wrap the pthread_* calls in libpq, and if the real ones are present, use them, else return a static=20 variable?
I can't tell from that description if the idea meets the "non intrusive" test or not. How many places would you have to touch? How exactly are you going to tell "whether the real ones are present"?
I'll gen up a patch this week and present it for review.
Basically the 3 pthread_* calls that were added for thread-safe pipes
would be wrapped, and dlsym returning NULL would mean the real ones are not present, per the note I got back from Dave Prosser of SCO, as well
as the paper Jonathan Schilling pointed me to, that I posted the URL to
on Friday before my world got rocked.
