I'd like to Anthony, but I'm not really sure what needs changing. I was 
going to move the thread_pthread.h from the 2.2b1 release into a clean 
2.1 installation and try that .. but then I read Tim's post and have 
been trying to get my head around the CVS way of doing things.

If there's any chance of a 2.1.2 release that does this - I for one 
would be a happy camper.

Thing is, I'm not sure that will fix the Zope threading issue, as Zope 
is not compatible with python 2.2 at the moment, so it's eally a stab in 
the dark...

many thanks for your response,
tone.
