Dynamic library support is also missing from Linux/alpha, probably for no good reason. +Currently there is no thread support in the standard distribution. There +exists a separate port to DEC Unix pthreads. It should be possible to +port the X86 Linux threads support to Alpha without much trouble. + +If you get asssembler errors, be sure to read the first few lines of the +Makefile. + From Philippe Queinnec: System: DEC/Alpha OSF1 v3.2, vendor cc |
