GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 599241
testThreads does not compile on mingw32 (libxml 2.7.6)

Created attachment 145990 [details] [review] Patch against 2.7.6 testThreads does not compile on mingw32 because it assumes pthread_t to be a scalar type, which it isn't on mingw32. (posix threads specifies users to assume pthread_t is opaque) Attached patch fixes this and allows the tests to complete. As far as I can tell, this fix should be valid for all pthreads implementations.
still in 2.7.8
Fix pushed to git, slightly different based on list feedback, will be closed in next release, thanks ! Daniel
