Odd behaviour with pthreads?

I changed my build of Busybox/uClibc on my Dreamcast to use pthreads -
needed for the alsa utilities - and now the alsa utilities work:

/ # aplay --version
aplay: version 1.0.9a by Jaroslav Kysela <perex at suse.cz>

But not much else does. The box boots but does not mount sys and
commands fail in odd ways eg

/etc # ls -l
ls: -l: No such file or directory

(ie it is trying to find the file -l)

I cannot get syslogd to run:

Jan 23 00:36:01 -F daemon.info init: Process '/sbin/syslogd -n -m
0' (pid 1350) exited.  Scheduling it for restart.
Jan 23 00:36:01 -F daemon.info init: Starting pid 1352,
console /dev/null: '/sbin/syslogd'
 
(over and over)

udev appears to have failed (only static device nodes exist) and dynamic
firmware loading is also failing.


Any idea as to what is wrong?

Thanks 

Adrian
