After searching the 'Net a bit, came across this thread:

<http://www.nagiosexchange.org/nagios-users.34.0.html?&tx_maillisttofaq_pi1%5Bmode%5D=1&tx_maillisttofaq_pi1%5BshowUid%5D=7694>

That recommends modifying libmap.conf with:

[/usr/local/bin/nagios]
libpthread.so.2 libthr.so.2
libpthread.so libthr.so

Thanks for pointing this out. I've had similar problems with nagios but
hadn't found a solution until I saw your pointer. Sadly, my expertise
with both thread libraries is sufficiently lacking that I have no clue
where to start looking for the cause :-(


I have also seen this issue, but have always put it down to the way that
we manage our nagios deployments with cfengine. I will try to deploy
this change and monitor for the problem to see if it persists.

On a side note if you want to use broker modules with nagios from port
you need to change the following in the port Makefile in order to make
them load properly:

From:
USE_AUTOTOOLS= autoconf:259
To:
SE_AUTOTOOLS= autoconf:259 libltdl:15


I sent an email to the maintainer but got no response and my email did
not seem to have affected the last commit to upgrade to 2.10.
