Hello,

I am trying to compile the latest version of GNUstep (from the sources, not
the package). It doesn't compile (really the core gnustep-objc). I remember
that some months ago I was able to compile it from the packages. Were they
severly patched?

Anyway the problems are threads, i tried posix and pthreads. in the gnustep
mailing list they pointed out to a thread problem confromance to posix in
both cases.

POSIX:

PTHREADS:
do I have to abandon posix threads? I tried pthereads then, obtaining:

any suggestions?
