Question about libpthread warning

[Peter Poeml <po...@suse.de>]

Hi!

today I saw this warning in the build log of mod_perl 1.27:

************* WARNING *************

  Your Perl is linked with -lpthread, make sure that your httpd is built with LIBS=-lpthread


************* WARNING *************

(with perl 5.8.0 with thread support, and apache 1.3.26)

How serious is this warning? I noticed it only today, and while we have
a threaded perl since a a month or so we didn't notice any problems with
mod_perl so far. 

[Unfortunetaly the test suite has not been run routinely because that
doesn't work with apxs. But I've just built a mod_perl without apxs, and
make test was fine (not all tests enbled though -- will do that later.]

Thanks for advice!
Peter

if mod_perl is working for you, there shouldn't be any problems.
on platforms such as freebsd, there are big troubles when a module has 
pthread support and the main program doesn't, httpd won't even start.
