However, it's not clear to me that's required for developing winethreads-over-pthreads. People could probably get started on that with their current Linux, even though it's not 100% posix-compliant, and has odd quirks like using a special management thread, etc.
Exactly. Who's going to start it?
According to a recent post, a quick try at basing things on pthreads is at http://www.geocrawler.com/archives/3/9376/2001/12/50/7309863/ but I guess there's more to be done. So the question is, who's going to be the first to get a "new pthreads" Linux system up and running to verify the problem and try out that patch? (http://kt.zork.net/wine/wn20030131_155.html#2 has a nice summary of recent discussions, but searching google for wine pthreads yields a few interesting tidbits, too.) - Dan -- Dan Kegel http://www.kegel.com http://counter.li.org/cgi-bin/runscript/display-person.cgi?user=78045
