Hi...

A few days ago we encountered some very odd and strange crashes on linux when using gnustep heavily multithreaded. We found that there was no thread registration/unregistration for it in cleanup_names(). After adding them everything runs fine now.

The patches for the classes are attached in this email..

Hope they can be applied.

Roland

PS: On may,12 I submitted a patch for NSTimeZone to make it working on non english windows system. Haven't heard anything about it till now. Is there anything wrong with it?
