Thanks! The changes are minor --BUT-- I did ENABLE the call to
'mlockall' in sql/mysqld.cc. This seems to work; but everywhere else
in the code 'mlockall' is only used under SUN_OS. If it shouldn't be
used under other OS's (like Darwin), you might want to put #if's
around the call in sql/mysqld.cc...

This is the "Mac OS X" version (NOT server).
Earlier, I submitted patches for 3.23.24 as did someone else and
somewhere in the process of merging my submission and the other
person's submission, one of the pthread #define's was incorrectly
entered... This current patch fixes that problem (it's just removing
a '&' and removing an unnecessary #define).

Yes. Can you copy it to your server though? My server is on an iDSL
line (25K/s) so it would probably overload my connection if too many
people grab it. (If not, let me know and I think someone from Apple
will happily put it up on their servers).
