Wine on FreeBSD current

[John Birrell]

Are there any people subscribed to this list who use Wine on FreeBSD
current?

I'm just wondering if it is supposed to work as well as FreeBSD stable.

There is a threading problem right now (search the bug reports) on -CURRENT 
when using libpthread.  Using libc_r is sort of working, at least as of a few 
weeks ago.  I saw some discussion on one of the FreeBSD mailing lists 
discussing a different way of linking against a thread library that might 
make things work better.  Basically, it involves  not using -lpthread during 
the link stage but instead compiling against -pthread. Check through the 
freebsd-current and freebsd-ports mailing list archives, I believe the 
discussion was in one of those.
