Hi,
With a set of patches (send to mySQL) mySQL 3.23.30-gamma compiles on OS X PB. Mostly problems seem to be related to fairly old POSIX code in just a few places.
The latest mySQL release is pretty close to run on Mac OS X PB, apart from 'shutdown' from mysqladmin (and likely other thread control things).
The mySQL people suspect thread signaling to be the problem, but I'm not familiar enough with (darwin) threads to efficently debug this.
So the question is
* will there be released an updated threads implementation in the final OS X?
* or is somebody here able and willing to debug the threads code+
As far as the mySQl people tells me, nobody is apparently working on this right now.
