This would be an ugly hack which pollutes the otherwise quite clean code. And I don't think it's worth it. Applications which are using thread, possibly through modules, should be linked against the thread library. Solaris solves the problem (they also don't allow unloading the thread library) is by having the flag DF_1_NODELETE set in the FLAGS_1 word of the thread library. This is a much more worthwhile way to handle this. -- ---------------. ,-. 1325 Chesapeake Terrace Ulrich Drepper \ ,-------------------' \ Sunnyvale, CA 94089 USA Red Hat `--' drepper at redhat.com `------------------------
