| Yes, this new code is something I commited on the 29/12/2004 (I used the
"blame" function of TortoiseSVN for that). It was a patch by Graham to fix
MODPYTHON-2 <http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-2>.
The problem is not in the patch, but rather in the fact that APR seems
configured without the thread support while Python is configured with thread
support. mod_python.c assumes that is WITH_THREAD is defined, then the APR
mutex functions are available, which is wrong. Maybe we should test for
APR_HAS_THREADS instead ? In that case, won't this cause any problems on
threaded platforms ?
I don't know if this is a problem specific to minotaur or to all version of
FreeBSD. I'm currently downloading the ISOs of FreeBSD and I'll try using
QEMU to run a FreeBSD setup on my computer, but that will be long and
troublesome. If someone has more clue on this issue, feel free to tell us
 .
Regards,
Nicolas
