I have a FreeBSD 4.11-STABLE box with Perl 5.8.7 built from the ports collection, and "nm libperl.so" shows no pthread functions. The port's Makefile has a WITH_THREADS option that I don't think is enabled by default. The Python port's Makefile, however, has a WITHOUT_THREADS option, so I think it *does* build a threaded Python by default. -- Michael Fuhr http://www.fuhr.org/~mfuhr/ ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
