File.mkdirs fails in java programs started with daemon on debian woody

           Summary: File.mkdirs fails in java programs started with daemon
                    on debian woody
           Product: Commons
           Version: 1.0 Final
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: Daemon
        AssignedTo: commons-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: morus.walter@gmx.de


There are problems when running tomcat started by daemon under debian woody that
are described on the tomcat user mailing list. Thread starting with
http://www.mail-archive.com/tomcat-user@jakarta.apache.org/msg131293.html.
Tomcat doesn't create directories.
The problem was tracked down to the point, that File.mkdirs fails in this
situation, when it has to create more than one directory.
The problems occur on specific systems only, one of them is debian woody.
(Debian testing/unstable does not show this problem.)

The problem can be solved by linking jsvc against libpthread.

So I suggest to add -lpthread to the linking of jsvc in Makefile.in (unless
there are known/expected issues with that).
