[ pthread_kill() in signal.h conflicting with devel/pth's attempts to hide native pthread]

The attached patch dropped into the port makes devel/pth and security/gnupg build for me. I'll re-build my full set of ports with the patch and see, but I'm not really set up to do a global build of all ports. More importantly I guess is that it doesn't break things on older releases. I'll re-build my ports on a 7.x system too. I'm not the most knowledgable about the various POSIX/XSI compatibility defines and their expected results, but it seems pretty dangerous to me to flat-out #undef it. Who knows what else depends on those being set properly in any given application. How about only doing it for a new enough OS release to at least avoid breaking older releases, and then communicate the problem upstream and hope for a better fix? -- / Peter Schuller PGP userID: 0xE9758B7D or 'Peter Schuller <peter.schul...@infidyne.com>' Key retrieval: Send an E-Mail to getpgp...@scode.org E-Mail: peter.schul...@infidyne.com Web: http://www.scode.org
