Hi,

on upcoming Freebsd 9 (RC2) it is necessary to do something
like this on trunk:
 > svn diff -r 19175:19176 > bsd_sem_patch.diff
and then apply the patch to svn fixes 2.6 branch (works cleanly)
 > patch -p0 -i bsd_sem_patch.diff
without that using threads and or semaphores crash on FreeBSD 9.

It would be nice if this patch could make it into fpc 2.6 to allow
binary release users an easier start.
