Won't this add more overhead to kick libpthread out of kernel ?
I always think today's kernel environment is no longer very suitable
for M:N, the better enviroment might be RELENG_4. :-)

I don't care this overhead because libthr does not more frequently 
create and destroy kthread than libpthread, and almost all popular
heavy weight applications cache their threads for reuse, they does
not rely on fast thread creation and destruction.
