System: NetBSD xxx 1.6U NetBSD 1.6U (Config19) #0: Thu Jun 19 19:29:05 IST 2003 jtb@:/home/jtb/sys/arch/macppc/compile/Config macppc
Architecture: powerpc
Machine: macppc
>Description:
	devel/pth doesn't work for me on powerpc -current with --enable-syscall-hard.

	I tracked it down to the following lines (224-227) in pth_syscall.c:

	#if defined(HAVE_DLSYM) && defined(HAVE_RTLD_NEXT)
        	pth_syscall_fct_tab[i].addr = (pth_syscall_fct_t)
	            dlsym(RTLD_NEXT, pth_syscall_fct_tab[i].name);
	#endif

	So it's a dlsym() problem with RTLD_NEXT.  With these lines commented
	all of the tests are passed, otherwise all fail with seg faults.

>How-To-Repeat:

Build devel/pth on a recent powerpc installation.  Do 'make -ik test' in ${WRKSRC}.  Notice
that all tests fail.

>Fix:

For now disable the lines mentioned above for powerpc.
