Mostly thread related things. Our projectdeadline came nearer and after
several days and nights of debugging i gave FreeBSD a try. 
	Some days later a developer version of mysql was released with
several fixes for Alpha. This one worked nice ...

I don't prefer FreeBSD over NetBSD, i just had to finish this project,
and in this moment, there was FreeBSD on the box.
