[Zope] Starting Zope on FreeBSD 2.2.8---Python dumps core

[Andrew Kenneth Milton]

+----[ Loren M. McCarter ]---------------------------------------------
| I'm having difficulty starting Zope. 
| 
| Versions:
|   Zope: 2.1.6, compiled from source with "python wo_pcgi.py"
|   Python: 1.5.2, (#2, Jan 17 2000)  [GCC 2.7.2.1] on freebsd2
|           Python is compiled with pthreads enabled. 
|   FreeBSD: 2.2.8 (yes, I know it is outdated).

The FreeBSD threads support even up until 4.0-RELEASE was attrocious. You will
probably find that it is this thread support that is hosing your python, and
therfore your Zope.

Zope will run on FreeBSD 3.4, 3.5  quite well, but, you really want to
have 4.0-Stable on your machine.

You will have to upgrade the OS on your machine, be it a switch to
Linux, or an upgrade in FreeBSD.
