Hi,

are there any plans to implement makecontext() & friends
functions in FreeBSD? 

Is there any other way to implement user-level threads?
(I know it can be done in assembler, but this is not 
portable)

Using pthreads is not an option for me, although pthreads
are implemented as userlevel threads in FreeBSD, but not
on most other Unixes.

Thanx for your answers,
Mitja
