Hmm. I wish you'd been around when we released it. I hope you'll be
available for the next iteration.

OK, I see. I'm beyond my ken here. Not that I mind, but you should know
you're clinging to a drowning man. ;) I don't know what the right
approach is.

What basically happens is, you "--enable-threadsafe" and configure hunts
around for threadsafe functional prototypes. Which it finds, but they're
obsolete as of 11.00 (let's say). How in the dickens is configure
supposed to know that you've got threadsafe non-_r functions it should
employ instead? Even if our code didn't assume that threadsafe functions
all had the _r form?

But I think the solution is: don't try. FreeTDS is, with one exception
that I can think of, written to be threadsafe. The purpose of
"--enable-threadsafe" is to control its calls to the OS. In your case the
"old" calls are themselves threadsafe. So, no need to use
"--enable-threadsafe".

(I'd like to know how they pulled that off. I have it on good authority
from well-known NetBSD people that the old semantics can't be made
threadsafe.)

Maybe you'd better post the prototypes for those three. Mine for example
looks like this:

void * memcpy(void *dst, const void *src, size_t len);

Maybe we have to do something different? <shrug>

I didn't have time to look into this tonight. I bet Nick or Frediano will
have it fixed in a matter of hours if they haven't already.

If the snapshot doesn't go off as planned tonight (07:00 UTC), I'll do one
before I go to work (~12:00 UTC).
