Yes, the failure is in our side, we still have to teach gdb somehow, 
that thread handling is the same as in linuxthreads (pre-NPTL) implementation,
see #550361. Unfortunately it requires deep knowledge of gdb, which no-one porter have :-(

We have problem in threaded gdb support, but it does not seems
we have general problem with threads. The implementation is the same
on both kfreebsd-i386 and kfreebsd-amd64.

Take a look on my ktrace:

 45835 gbak_static CALL  flock(0xa,LOCK_UN)
 45835 gbak_static RET   flock 0
 45835 gbak_static CALL  close(0xa)

It seems normal - unlock file and close file

 45835 gbak_static CALL  close(0xa)
 45835 gbak_static RET   close -1 errno 9 Bad file descriptor

And this is strange - close again the same file, which have been closed two syscalls above ?

Do you have idea about differences between firebird2.1 (builds fine) and firebird2.5 (FTBFS) ?
