[Openmcl-devel] yielding to a thread

[Cyrus Harmon]

On perhaps a similar note, I'm having trouble with portableaserve. It 
used to work for me, but now seems to fire off a new thread, go through 
the motions of starting up and then quit. I'm pretty sure the behavior 
was different a few weeks ago and that I didn't change anything, other 
than trying to stay current with the OpenMCL tree (which had other 
things like the SLIME fixes) that I wanted. Did thread behavior 
recently change?

Thanks,

Cyrus
