[Mono-dev] Running Mono on 32bits-big endian PowerPC

[Mathieu Malaterre]

Alex,

I understand that most configure options are considered 'advanced' and
one should not expect them to even work. However I am simply trying to
compile mono with --with-tls=pthread (that seems like a widely spread
option on non-gcc based system).

Is that considered a supported option ? If so would you be kind enough
and give me the required options for this to work ? It seems sgen
implementation assume --with-tls=__thread and mono fails to build with
silly warning such as "sgen requires __thread...", when one use a
simple autogen.sh such as:

% ./autogen.sh --prefix=$HOME/blah --with-tls=pthread

Thx much
