Re: openldap-stable fails tests on Solaris, segfaults.

[Paul Barnfather <plb@clanger9.demon.co.uk>]

No luck so far :-(

If I remove thread support with:

env CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/BerkeleyDB/include" \
LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/BerkeleyDB/lib" ./configure --without-threads \
--with-ldbm-api=db2

as suggested by Kurt, the tests fail at exactly the same point.
Doesn this suggest that something other than thread problems is
the cause, or am I way off base?

If I try the -lthread option below, configure fails with:

configure: error: pthread.h and pthread_create are not compatible

Do I need an extra configure flags here to prevent this?
