Re: pthread_create in a forked child

My program is already linked with pthread and ldd shows it is correctly 
linked:

        libpthread.so.20 => /usr/lib/libpthread.so.20 (0x4002c000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/i686/libc.so.6 (0x40070000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)

Perhaps the wrong fork is called (the one of libc) as fork is also 
exported in libpthread.

Frederic Rouyre
