(And by really looking at it, unistd.h includes > sys/unistd.h which itself includes sys/features.h, which defines it, so > the problem here is probably that the user includes pthread.h instead of > unistd.h (I haven't kept the mail)). You are right here: see also http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908799/xsh/unistd.h.html or http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/basedefs/unistd.h.html (The Single UNIX ® Specification, Version 2 or 3). Although not required by a pthread spec (as far as I can see) it might be a good idea to include (the pthread part) unistd.h in the pthread.h as Linux and pthreads-win32 seem to do. -- Groeten, Joost Kraaijeveld Askesis B.V.
