Using DMD 0.128, Windows 98SE.

I just tried building Phobos from the sources in one of my usual bug fix attempts.  However, when this is done, I get a strange error.

----------
E:\DMD\BIN\..\..\dm\bin\link.exe unittest,,,user32+kernel32/co/noi;
		sc unittest.obj -g
link unittest,,,user32+kernel32/co/noi;

		unittest
test1
test1
test2
hello world!
re = 2, im = 1
hello world
args.length = 1
args[0] = 'E:\DMD\SRC\PHOBOS\UNITTEST.EXE'
Success
!Error: Thread error: wait on self

** error 1 ** deleting unittest
----------

The line below "Success" appears on exit from any program linked with the home-built phobos.lib.  Using the phobos.lib supplied in the DMD package doesn't show the problem.

Could you describe your changes to Phobos or even better post a
diff/patch file?
Does the same happen when you try to use your modified libphobos under
Linux?

I simply tried adding the first fix described here

http://www.digitalmars.com/drn-bin/wwwnews?digitalmars.D.bugs/4555

but even after I changed it back it still happened.

No idea.

I rebuilt, ran unittest, and compiled some apps. with DMD (and the newly built lib.) on both Linux and WinXP and all worked Ok for me.

Try doing a "make clean" before rebuilding.

I recall trying that, but it kept crashing for some strange reason.  So I ended up manually deleting the .obj files except for minit.obj.  (I'm not sure if I have a compatible assembler on my system....)

Another bug I noticed is that the minit.obj file in the DMD package is a few seconds older than minit.asm.
