Hello folks,

Most major locking work in libthr is finished. I believe it is stable enough now
that it can be used for most applications[1]. I would appreciate it if people
would try it out and report any bugs.

[1] - I haven't had a chance to test it on an SMP machine. The machine I was
        going to use crashed for unrelated reasons, but it should be back up
        soon. Never the less I would be interested to hear from people who
        have "real world" threaded applications on SMP systems.

Cheers.
