>Description:
        Running a tcl-scotty script like this:

proc initTrap { } { 
    global s

    set s [snmp session]  
    $s bind {} trap { doTrap %A %T %V }
}   
initTrap

        bombs out with

straps: unable to bind multicast trap socket: Address already in use
**Pth** SCHEDULER INTERNAL ERROR: no more thread(s) available to schedule!?!?
can not connect straps socket: connection refused
    while executing
"$s bind {} trap { doTrap %A %T %V }"
    (procedure "initTrap" line 7)
    invoked from within
"initTrap"


>How-To-Repeat:
        See above.

>Fix:
        My current workaround was to remove --enable-thread and
        references to pthread's bulidlink script from the tcl
        package (including tcl's own buildlink script).  This made
        scotty work the same way it did before on this platform.
