GNU Pth - The GNU Portable Threads

SUPPORT
  =======

If you want to discuss multithreading issues not directly related to
  GNU Pth, post to the USENET newsgroup comp.programming.threads. There
  you can reach mostly all authorities of multithreading.

In case you have problems directly related to GNU Pth or you
  need technical support for programming with GNU Pth, you can
  send a bug report to bug-pth@gnu.org or alternatively write to
  the GNU Pth support mailing list pth-users@gnu.org. There you
  can currently (as of August 2000) reach about 110 Pth users from
  around the world. Old pth-users@gnu.org postings are archived at
  http://www.mail-archive.com/pth-users@gnu.org/.

Although the author tries hard to give the best support which is
  possible in his remaining free time, there cannot be any guarranty
  for help, because the author is a very busy hacker. So in your own
  interest: If you need help in case of a hard problems, keep your
  mail _VERY SHORT_ and _CONCISE_ and clearly mention your operating
  system, your way you have configured and built Pth and provide a
  way to _EASILY_ reproduce the problem. Don't die of laughter here
  - you would be terrified if you would know how much people of the
  authors software packages want help, but do not even mention the
  actual problem :-(

Additionally in case of `segfaults' or other heavy problems, it is
  important that you provide the author a stack frame backtrace (see
  gdb's `bt' command) to allow the author to locate the problem. Without
  this information it is usually not possible to help you in case of
  such problems.

Please understand, that you're not the only user of Pth and that Pth
  is not the only software package written by the author. So it is
  always appreciated that you first investigate yourself in solving the
  problem. If your problem then still remains, follow the above hints
  and contact the author. But please also understand, that application
  problems related to programming with Pth and the multithreaded
  paradigm cannot always be treated as real `problems'.
