could someone please updated these files from the mit-pthread package to
keep up with current 1.5? they cause mysql to core dump.

engine-alpha-netbsd-1.3.c
engine-alpha-netbsd-1.3.h
syscall-alpha-netbsd-1.3.S
syscall-template-alpha-netbsd-1.3.S

it's causing this error in netbsd/alpha 1.5 (did also in 1.4):
