Guido van Rossum 02a1c40051 Pat Knight:
Solaris 2 has stub implementations of the POSIX thread functions such as
pthread_detach in libc. This means that configure tries to use them without
-lpthread, then the test of pthread_create fails and the configuration
falls back to the Solaris thread library. This patch moves the test for
pthread_create in -lpthread ahead of the test for pthread_detach in libc.
The patch also ensures that -lpthread is at the start of the library list
when linking, to pick up POSIX thread semantics for fork (see below).

Justification.
Use of POSIX threads on Solaris ensures that the fork() call only runs the
thread that called fork() in the child. This is desirable to prevent (for
example) parent server or database threads running in the child. Sun's
-lthread library uses a traditional fork() which replicates all the
parent's threads in the child. I find this undesirable.

Digression.
The configure.in seems to always test for -lthread even if a POSIX library
is found. I'm not enough of a configure.in wizard to decide whether this is
desirable or how to fix it. It is also irrelevant to this patch - I just
spotted it while testing.
End of Digression.

Guido van Rossum ff484183de According to Harri Pasanen, the Solaris+gcc test for LINKFORSHARED
needed an adaptation for the latest gcc -- we need to grep stderr as
well as stdout for the magic string BFD.  (Does anybody know what BFD
means?)

Guido van Rossum e97ee18115 Changes to auto-detect the correct dynload_<platform>.c file.
NOTE: Windows, Mac and OS/2 build procedures must be adapted manually!

This is part of a set of patches by Greg Stein.

Fred Drake f581db15a3 Remove test for getlogin_r(); the interface is not clearly defined, at
least on Solaris (sometimes it's Unix98, sometimes it conforms to an
early draft).

Properly generate config.h.in using autoheader instead of editing it
manually; thanks, Guido!

Guido van Rossum 0eefa3fbbf Patch by Vladimir Marangozov, inspired by a bug report from Gary
Duzan, for AIX, to support C++ objects with static initializers, when
using the genuine IBM C++ compiler (namely xlC/xlC_r).

See accompanying patches to acconfig.h and importdl.c.

Guido van Rossum df69365f5f Ty Sarna writes:
The following patches (relative to 1.5.2b1) enable Python dynamic
loading to work on NetBSD platforms that use ELF (presnetly mips and
alpha systems).  They automaticly determine wether the system is ELF or
a.out rather than using astatic list of platforms so that when other
NetBSD platforms move to ELF, python will continue to work without
change.

Guido van Rossum 3c4bb802d0 Patch by Brian Gallew for DG/UX. I'm not quite sure what it does but
it seems harmless for other platforms.  It plays tricks with the name
of the library used to link with.  Apparently DG/UX really wants a
shared library to link with if it wants shared modules to use symbols
from the library.  I'm not sure why this wasn't an issue with 1.4;
DG/UX seems to be the only platform where moving to a single library
made things harder!

BTW This adds a target to create libpython$(VERSION).so; however this
target is *only* for DG/UX.

Guido van Rossum 8f4ceb168c Two unrelated changes:
- add test for strptime (not used by the core but needed by Marc Lemburg's
Date object).

- Test for GNU ld on Solaris; need to add an extra linker option to
export symbols in that case.

Guido van Rossum 009f78754d When --with-thread(s) is specified, the thread module is now automatically

Bill Janssen will be happy.  The original idea was by Lele Gaifax (though
I changed the implementation to use a separate file).
