I have built a threads prototype for FreeBSD.  You can malloc mem after
creating a thread and the address space is kept consistant etc.  I also
built a user level threads library which provides the interface to the
kernel thread routines, and also implements user mutexes in user level
code which I believe are MP safe.  I thought since you guys are building
a SMP version of FreeBSD, you probably want to build applications that
scale to the # of CPUs in the system.  Sooooo, if you are interested in
trying these threads out, you can get'em at

ftp.inna.net under pub/FreeBSD/Threads

Lemme know if they are interesting to you!
