    Hello,

    I've run into an issue that has me stumped. Anything that I link against
    libpthread on my FreeBSD-5.4-RELEASE/i386 installation will segfault as
    soon as it tries making use of the threads. For example:

    $ kedit
    zsh: segmentation fault (core dumped) kedit
    $ gdb `which kedit` -c kedit.core
    [...]
    (gdb) backtrace
    #0 0x29524ac7 in __error () from /usr/lib/libpthread.so.1

    This behaviour started appearing after the installation of
    FreeBSD-5.4-RELEASE. I've rebuilt libpthread and qt (I've used qt's own
    uic program as a test, it's affected by this problem too), removed any
    contents of libmap.conf, and there's nothing special in make.conf, the
    problem persists though.

    Also, only programs/libraries that I compiled after the installation of
    FreeBSD-5.4 are affected. Programs that have been compiled under
    FreeBSD-5.3 run just fine.

    Can you give me any pointers as to what exactly is broken on my system,
    and where I should start with fixing things?

    Thanks
    Benjamin
