| 2 | distribution (x >= 50) for details of how to build and use this.

| 5 | If your version of patch can't create a file from scratch, then you'll
|
|---|
| 6 | need to create an empty thread.h manually first. Perl itself will need
|
|---|
| 7 | to be built with -DUSE_THREADS yet. If you're using MIT pthreads or
|
|---|
| 8 | another threads package that needs pthread_init() to be called, then
|
|---|
| 9 | add -DNEED_PTHREAD_INIT. If you're using a threads library that only
|
|---|
| 10 | follows one of the old POSIX drafts, then you'll probably need to add
|
|---|
| 11 | -DOLD_PTHREADS_API. I haven't tested -DOLD_PTHREADS_API properly yet
|
|---|
| 12 | and I think you may still have to tweak a couple of the mutex calls
|
|---|
| 13 | to follow the old API.
