Hi Dan,

You don't mean that, do you?  You seem to be implying that pthread
functions would have to be invoked in libc something like this:

  result = __isthreaded ? _pthread_mutex_trylock(&foo_lock) : 0;
  if (result != 0)
          /* error */;

or use the macros in reentrant.h.

But, maybe I'm just misunderstanding you.  I believe the thread
functions are `stubbed out' in the non-thread case?

Cheers,
