Another option would be to build openpgm without fancy code that uses those
intrinsics. If I disable some constants defined in configure script when
intrinsics
are expected from the toolchain, the code does not use them but instead
tries to use pthread_spin_{lock,trylock,unlock}() functions. Curiously, my
toolchain,
built with "linuxthreads (stable/old)", does not have them. Should it? I
have
attached defconfig I use.

I have tried to rebuild the toolchain with "linuxthreads" but it complained
somewhere
in uClibc:

  CC libc/unistd/confstr.os
  CC libc/unistd/usleep.os
  CC libpthread/linuxthreads/forward.oS
  CC libpthread/linuxthreads/libc-cancellation.oS
  CC libpthread/linuxthreads/libc_pthread_init.oS
  CC libc/misc/elf/dl-iterate-phdr.oS
  CC libc/misc/internals/__uClibc_main.oS
  CC libc/inet/rpc/rpc_thread.oS
In file included from
./libpthread/linuxthreads/sysdeps/pthread/bits/libc-tsd.h:24,
                 from libc/inet/rpc/rpc_thread.c:16:
./include/tls.h:6:22: error: tls.h: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [libc/inet/rpc/rpc_thread.oS] Error 1

Could I fix this somehow?

I will send a disabling patch, of course, but I was just interested why my
toolchain
does not have spinlock support (POSIX [1] does not say that this is
restricted to
some extension).
