 Hi,
 
 I've had reasonable success with compiling 1.9.1 on HP-UX.  But 1.9.2 has been problematic since preview3 came out.  It seems the main issue is with threads.  A very simple example (as follows) works fine on 1.9.1 but the thread never seems to start on 1.9.2-rc2.
 
 <code>
 thr = Thread.new { puts "thr start"; sleep 1; puts "thr exit" }
 puts "main join"
 thr.join
 puts "main exit"
 </code>
 
 Sometimes it blocks indefinitely, and when I press control-C to stop it, I get a bus error:
 
 <trace>
 try_thread.rb: [BUG] Bus Error

 Some other times I get a seg-fault.  Can anyone point me to changes to threading in 1.9.2 so that I can investigate this more quickly and maybe find a solution?
 
 Thanks,
 Graham.
