[Linux-ia64] IA64 Linux library problem

[Einar Saltnes <eisa@scali.no>]

Hello!

We are experiencing some problems using some library routines on ia64.
We have an Itanium monoprocessor from Fujitsu Siemens running Red Hat
Linux
Development Release for IA-64.


1)
We experience that
sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN) returns 0 (zero) on a monoprocessor ia64.


2)
We also experience errors using
 cout << xxx << endl;
when linking with the pthread library.
Using "endl" will give segmentation fault when linking with pthread
library, while the very same statement will be OK when not linking with
pthread library.

//Program-------------------------------
#include <iostream.h>

int
main(void)
{
   cout << "Heisann++" << endl;
}
