    hi there,

    seems that the Mac OS X implementation of threading lacks a number of functions expected by commonc. For example pthread_kill(...). Is there anyway around this? I've trawled the internet and am adding defines in /usr/include/pthread.h but haven't had much luck yet.

    Thanks for any help

      I thought Darwin was essentially a BSD derivitive, and as such should probably use threading the same way FreeBSD impliments it.  If so, you might want to look at the macro tests in the m4 directy, and see how the FreeBSD specific tests may effect your Mac OS X target.  I recall we have a Mac OS X compile farm machine here so I may try looking into this myself at some point in the near future.
