[cl-debian] Re: [Sbcl-devel] sbcl with sb-threads not compatible with 2.4 kernel

Do people think it is better to have a sbcl that bombs out on 2.4 with "you should run 2.6" or should I drop the threading on x86?

The Debian kernel team pushes strongly for 2.6 only (at least for i386 an amd64) and there's currently not much activity for 2.4 updates beyond 2.4.27 for sarge. Some architectures may keep 2.4 for a while, but for i386/amd64 it is de facto dead. Thiemo
