Do either platforms pass the tests in APR (testthread, etc)?

I can't seem to get my [recently updated 5.0-CURRENT] FreeBSD box
to compile anything except the prefork MPM, no matter what I do,
but I must be doing something wrong. Am I the only one with this
weird problem?

FreeBSD-CURRENT passes sendfile, testthread and testlockperf.
Any others?

OH!  You forgot to pass --enable-threads to configure - we still
have an override in APR to disable threads on FreeBSD.  Sounds 
like httpd should be erroring out when we can't get a specified 
MPM (assuming you are using --with-mpm=worker).  I thought
we did error out...  -- justin

Can we try and specify EXACTLY what the problem is? We probably need to try
and write some tests that expose it so we can debug further. Given how many
people will want to use FreeBSD we should probably try hard to find/fix
this!

I think Justin was right about using --enable-threads
