pthreads, sockets, read(), write() mostly.
i did not build guile. didn't realize that it came with --with-threads=no. maybe i should try recompiling myself. hmm..
thanks.

Did you build Guile yourself, and if so, did you change the
--with-threads=no setting? I believe that a threaded Guile 1.8 may
have problems, at least if fork is used ( i.e. open-*-pipe, system,
etc.).
(Of course fork is generally a problem for any threaded app that
doesn't plan very carefully (or doesn't just avoid fork altogether).)
