I would greatly appreciate if anyone working with gcc 4.4.0 on mips-sgi-irix6.5 and pthreads would contact me ASAP (deadlines, deadlines, deadlilnes). I am having issues with pthread initialization (just including -lpthread in a simple program that does not use them). I have tried both binutils ld v2.19 and the native loader /usr/bin/ld v7.41. Neither work. Thanks in advance, Bill Tovrea BAE Systems 16550 West Bernardo Drive San Diego, CA 92127 Telephone: (858) 592-5292 Pager: (888) 971-4964 E-mail: George.Tovrea@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
