Can't you, for instance, change the Libtool interface number for `libguile'? That's ugly, and would require recompilation of all packages depending on it, but at least it would allow you to produce thread-enabled packages for the remainder of 1.8.x. > The problem is that Guile 1.8 in Etch was compiled without threads > (due to some serious problems at the time). OTOH, I don't remember seeing any "serious" thread-related bug fix since 1.8.0. Or did I miss it?
