Hi Brane,

Any resolution on this ? With the convar bug, essentially 
multi-threading does not work on win32.

thanks,

Maybe I missed some postings to apr-dev, so I don't know your actual 
problem.
But some weeks ago I already created a patch for condition variables
under WIN32, see http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27654

Maybe that's the same issue.

In simple words? The Win32 condition var implementation has so many 
races that I'm tempted to call Ascot (or the Kentucky derby, for the 
colonials :-)

What are the problems? Maybe someone could help.

Ohmigod, I totally forgot about this... and now I'm very short on time.
Of course, it's not true that multi-threadring doesn't work, it's just 
the condition vars that don't work :-)
