+<p><li><b>I can't compile and run multi-threaded applications.</b>
+<p>Special compile-time flags are required when compiling threaded
+applications on FreeBSD. If you are compiling a threaded application,
+you must compile with the _THREAD_SAFE and -pthread flags:
+<p><blockquote><pre>cc -D_THREAD_SAFE -pthread ...</pre></blockquote>
+<p>The Berkeley DB library will automatically build with the correct options.

+<p><li><b>I get occasional failures when running RPC-based programs under FreeBSD clients.</b>
+<p>There is a known bug in the XDR implementation in the FreeBSD C library,
+from Version 2.2 up to version 4.0-RELEASE, that causes certain sized
+messages to fail and return a zero-filled reply to the client. A bug
+report (#16028) has been filed with FreeBSD. The following patch is the
+FreeBSD fix:
+<p><blockquote><pre>*** /usr/src/lib/libc/xdr/xdr_rec.c.orig Mon Jan 10 10:20:42 2000
+--- /usr/src/lib/libc/xdr/xdr_rec.c Wed Jan 19 10:53:45 2000
