I hope that I didn't misrepresent that changes from:
* Forward-port Kurt Roeckx's patch from bug#281059.
- Add fast mutexes for MIPS and amd64.
- Add --enable-pthreadsmutexes to configure.
* Remove LD_ASSUME_KERNEL hack, since the
--enable-pthreadsmutexes option defaults to off.
(from db4.3 changelog)
(But I meant that change - with dropping the LD_ASSUME_KERNEL hack, this
problem should AFAICS also disappear.)
Cheers,
Andi
