I would avoid having X use cthreads. It might assume that stdio will be
multithreaded, which ours isn't. I'd just let X be all single-threaded
until we have pthreads support implemented on the Hurd.
Check the code that is conditionalized on HasShm, and see how it handles
errors from the calls.
Hi,
(Branden: I hope you don't mind the CC)
this is my first (actually second) go at sanitizing the X configuration
on the GNU platform. This process will take some time, with several steps
involved. First step is to get the configuration fixed and the Debian rules
files adapted, so we can build

The alleged origin is in government pensions to the families of

It's better that the beasts of the Hurd graze in freedom on the
prairie wilderness than be reduced to domesticity. Old McDonald is a

It is true that they are both ELF/x86 platforms. But the ABIs are not
binary compatible at any level. So compiling sources with Linux header
files and then linking

Yes, struggled for several weeks
Hi! I have a question regarding linking binaries under hurd.
I found that if I compile binaries to object files under linux and then
link it under hurd agains its libc everything works OK.
I'am trying to port a386 and Linux/a386 to hurd, so I'm compiling linux
kernel under linux and I would lik
