The reason I ask is I notice the size of the pthread_cond_t has changed between SLES 8 and Red Hat AS 3 albeit the size increase appears all padding. If the size is a problem, can I simply ensure that the memory I declare for my condition variables on SLES 8 has sufficient padding for the extra 36 bytes required by Red hat AS 3? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks, Trevor -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Linux Kernel 2.6 (or previous version if backported) 2. NPTL ported to the particular target. 3. glibc 2.3.2 configured with TLS support 4. gcc 3.4, with TLS support for the target. 5. binutils support for TLS Am i missing anything else?
