First, some kudos on pthreads -- we have ported our
research router software (MRT) to use pthreads on SunOS. Works 
beautifully.

We now have a requirement to port our code to NetBSD1.1 for deployment
of MRT/pthreads on a gigabit testbed. I grabbed
the current version of pthreads which seems to have support for 1.1,
but all of the pthread tests failed:
  (gdb) run
  Starting program: /usr/distrib/pthreads/tests/test_create 
  Program received signal SIGSEGV (11), Segmentation fault
  0x612d in _exit (status=-1) at /usr/distrib/pthreads/pthreads/_exit.c:67
  67                              machdep_sys_fcntl
	(fd_table[fd]->fd.i, F_SETFL, fd_table[fd]->flags);

Was just wondering about the current state of pthreads and NetBSD.
Will things work if I grab NetBSD1.0?

Thanks.

- Craig
