We could define _POSIX_THREADS only if it isn't already defined. Or better yet, defined PY_POSIX_THREADS, have the Python source itself just trigger off of that, and #define _POSIX_THREADS somewhere in pyport.h, PY_POSIX_THREADS is defined and _POSIX_THREADS is not. -- Thomas Wouters <thomas@xs4all.net> Hi!
