Original bug ID: 92
Reporter: administrator
Status: closed
Resolution: fixed
Priority: normal
Severity: minor
Category: ~DO NOT USE (was: OCaml general)

Bug description

I have converted Markus' pcre to ocaml 3.00 and managed to compile
the whole of Vyper using it, but I get the following during a link:
[I'm using native threads, or trying to]

Yes, this is a bug in the Makefile for native threads. The new
feature of remembering C library names in Caml libraries is nice, but
all hell breaks loose when the wrong C library name is stored in a
Caml library.

Quick workaround: manual override!

    ocamlopt.opt ... -noautolink ... threads.cmxa ... -cclib -lthreadsnat

Better fix: apply the patch below to otherlibs/systhreads/Makefile,
change to that directory, and do make clean all allopt install.

Thanks for the bug report,
