Hi Anton

I had expired similar problems with console applications. After some 
investigations i came to the conclusion that there is something wrong 
with the dynamic loading of the "pthread" library.  Removing line 18. in 
the file "rtl/unix/cthreads.pp" ( define dynpthreads} // Useless on BSD, 
since they are in libc ) solved my problem.
