[fpc-devel] Threading in FPC and bug report

[Pedro Lopez-Cabanillas]

Hi,

I would like to ask politely for some elaboration about the closing comment on 
this bug report: http://www.freepascal.org/mantis/view.php?id=5940

It was opened one year ago, when I was testing the FPC release 2.0.0, but the 
situation didn't change too much in all this time. 

I know that it is not a real and perfect test case, but the program shows some  
facts.

1. When it is compiled with FPC under Linux, it behaves different than when 
Kylix 3 is used. It doesn't need a thread.waitfor under Kylix to work 
properly.
2. The program exists with an ugly runtime error, when it is compiled with 
FPC.
3. The program counts until 10 as it was intended when it is compiled under 
Kylix, not until eleven as with FPC.

Regards,
Pedro
