I've been poking around gcc's source a bit, and it seems like they
have a thread-abstraction layer in there called gthreads, with
implementations for several platforms.
libjava seems to have reimplemented a lot of this functionality for
POSIX (and now, Win32). Would it make more sense to just call the
gthreads functions in order to reduce the amount of platform-specific
code in libjava?
