My understanding is that pth
As an aside, Vicente Ara (zenton) actually wrote the pthread

Here is an updated patch that builds with Debian. Haven't tested it yet, I am
working on creating a
test environment. I essentially just moved the changes Thomas made into
pt-cond-wait.c in
libpthread in glibc.
Thanks,
Barry

Hi folks,
OK, I have a patch that adds pthread_hurd_cond_wait into the libpthreads that
Samuel has migrated
into Debian's glibc. It builds but it isn't creating the symbol in

Attached is the patch.
Thanks!
