mk> Greetings to this old thread on something I'm running up against:
mk> stack_t, sigstack, and sigaltstack are missing features in signal.h

r.> I haven't rebuilt GNU Pth, but keep in mind that it's cooperative only.

I wanted posix threads for reference, to get some gnu-compatibility.

mk> meanwhile, I would like to compile pth207s.zip, which has a binary.

r.> Also, there's already prebuilt binaries (from years ago):
r.> 
r.> http://na.mirror.garr.it/mirrors/djgpp/current/v2gnu/pth207b.zip
r.>...
r.> Or did you patch/improve your local copy?

no, I have not improved on this code.  It isn't compiling properly.
yes, I acknowledge(d) there is a binary, it seems you're pointing
that out.  I hope this thing can make it back into the realm of
Free software.  thanks, though.

r.> Though I vaguely remember that the (2.03p2) /current/ binary was
r.> fine but (2.04) /beta/ was accidentally compiled as 686+ only.
r.> 
r.> Why not use Juan's recent build of FSU Pthreads?
r.> 
r.> http://na.mirror.garr.it/mirrors/djgpp/current/v2tk/fpth314b.zip

It seems I might try and compile the source for that now...:
ok: http://show.ing.me/pth-dj/fpt0001.tar.gz is compiled.

mk> here are the pth-2.0.7 source tree, and the headers I'm using:
mk>
mk> http://show.ing.me/pth-dj/pth0001.tar.gz
mk> http://show.ing.me/pth-dj/inc0001.tar.gz

and http://show.ing.me/pth-dj/pth0002.tar.gz for a cross-build

Let me know if you think we can build the gnu portable threads.
Also, I am curious why djgpp has not yet implemented job control?

regards,
