Is this the same problem you are having?
I also get:

code:

---

ranlib /var/root/emp4/lib/liblwp.a
ranlib: file: /var/root/emp4/lib/liblwp.a(arch.o) has no symbols

Yeah, I'm getting those same errors. Here's a breakdown of all the code changes I've made and the compile errors I get (in that order).

/include/misc.h : commented out "extern char *sprintf();"

So, breaking down the arch.c I see that I need to know a bit about how OSX and PPC handles threading. I tried screwing around with just enabling the ifdef(__PPC__) section, but I get nothing but errors.

Do you or anyone have experience with enabling lwp on OSX? Or is there a way to swap lwp for the OSX cthreads? Am I just talking a bunch of garbage?

I am waaay over my head, but I'm not beaten yet.

--I KNOW, I'll move this discussion to "Compile Problems."
