    <p>
    Threading developers have been active behind the scenes
though not much has been visible. Real Life(TM) has been
hard on us as a group however.
</p><p>
Marcel and Davidxu have both (individually)
been looking at the support 
for debugging threaded programs. David has a set of
patches that allow gdb to correctly handle KSE programs and 
patches are being considerred for libthr based processes.
MArcell added a Thread ID to allow debugging code to unambiguously
specify a thread to debug.
</p><p> 

Dan Eischen continues to support people migrating to 
libpthreads and it seems to be going well.
</p><p> 

Doug Rabson has done his usual miracle work and produced 
a set of preliminary pathces to implement TLS (Thread 
Local Storage) for the i386 platform.
