wrong exit code with linux threads

[Tomas Ulin]

Hi,

the program below (tmp.c)  gives strange output regarding the child exit 
status when using linux threads on freebsd 4.7.

With lib pthread- correct:
Exit value 123
Exit value 123

With llthread - error:
Exit value 123
Exit value 0

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Tomas Ulin
