	Hi,

	I managed to get dvd+rw tools to build with a small change to
the existing pkgsrc patches (to exclude the call to mlockall for DragonFly as well as for NetBSD). Unfortunately it fails to work exiting with the error
message:

:-( failed to create thread: Resource temporarily unavailable

	Which implies pthread_create failed with an EAGAIN error. This is on 1.5.0-PREVIEW. From my (admittedly limited) understanding of pthreads the
code and the compile options seem to be correct.

	The simple patch for patches/patch-ac that got it to compile is:
