Is PackageMaker suitable for over-writing files of an existing

I don't know what is meant by "auth-framework", but...
If you've got complaints or suggestions for Documentation, then go to
http://bugreport.apple.com/ and file a bug. Apple seems intent on
working with these kinds of suggestions, esp. if they help newcomers
transition to the platform.

How is your mainThreadParm declared? If it's a file global scope non-
pointer value, it could be getting optimized away.
Try declaring it static or volatile.
Also, if threads are changing mainThreadParm independently in non-
atomic ways, you will want to put locks around the critical sections.
From what I can tell, clicking the button is not setting
mainThreadParm = kStopped. Set a breakpoint in your action method to
