Full_Name: Hallvard B Furuseth Version: HEAD, RE23 OS: OSF1 V5.1 alpha URL: Submission from: (NULL) (129.240.202.105) Submitted by: hallvard /configure on OSF1 alpha finds no suitable threading library. config.log says: configure:19993: checking pthread.h usability configure:20005: cc -c -g -I/local/include -I/local/gnu/include conftest.c >&5 cc: Error: /usr/include/pthread.h, line 1251: #error "Please compile the module including pthread.h with -pthread" (errormessage) due to this snippet of pthread.h: # ifndef _REENTRANT # error "Please compile the module including pthread.h with -pthread" # endif ./configure CC="cc -pthread" works. Not sure how to deal with that one. Seems a bit excessive to run all the OL_PTHREAD_TRY()s _before_ detecting that the system has pthread. Maybe write a special case, like try for pthread.h with -D_REENTRANT if not found without that?
moved from Incoming to Build

But I guess that should be reported to the libtool folks. ./configure --disable-shared CC="cc -pthread" does work. -- Regards, Hallvard
OSF1 is dead AFAIK, closing.
