Well, I got a large patch from John for his thread package and it also
needed a simple patch to pthread_cond_wait to not timeout on a wait.

Other then that, I am happy using threads over here just started
porting ILU to FreeBSD and its been a lot of fun . ILU can use
threads -- it is a configuration option.

ILU -- Inter-Language Unification
