I didn't close the bug (if it is a bug). I only have time and resources to track and run -current. And since it works on -current, and the thread libraries are the same between -current and -stable, I can only assume there is nothing to backport anyways, at least with regard to libpthread (the library). Obviously the kernels vary somewhat. -- DE
