The problem is that kernel 2.6 based systems apparently use the
NPTL ("Native Posix Thread Library"), which VDR doesn't seem to
work correctly with.

Since I myself don't use kernel 2.6 nor the NPTL I can't do any
testing here. So somebody who uses these will need to look into
this and find out what's wrong. I've said this on several occasions,
but apparently there is nobody interested in doing so...
