threading issue on freebsd 5.3

[Shie Erlich]

hi guys,

i have an application that was written on linux and runs flawlessly.

on freebsd, the threads just don't start.

i start them with start(), but on FreeBSD, they seem to hang

on _thread_start. i know this because

a) doing 'info threads' in gdb, shows that main() runs as expected, but 
all other threads are at _thread_start

b) my run() method is not called


(gdb) info threads
 7 Process 2541, Thread 7  0x282b2fdc in _thread_start () from 
/usr/lib/libc_r.so.5
 6 Process 2541, Thread 6  0x282b2fdc in _thread_start () from 
/usr/lib/libc_r.so.5
 5 Process 2541, Thread 5  0x282b2fdc in _thread_start () from 
/usr/lib/libc_r.so.5
 4 Process 2541, Thread 4  0x282b2fdc in _thread_start () from 
/usr/lib/libc_r.so.5
 3 Process 2541, Thread 3  0x282b2fdc in _thread_start () from 
/usr/lib/libc_r.so.5
 2 Process 2541, Thread 2  0x282b2fdc in _thread_start () from 
/usr/lib/libc_r.so.5
* 1 Process 2541, Thread 1  0x2821c697 in poll () from /lib/libc.so.5



Any ideas would be _greatly_ appriciated

thanks in advance,
