The important issue is how much do you want to
put Guile in bed with threads -- a configure-time option, or do you
distribute MIT pthreads (GPL'ed already, and builds on SunOS/Solaris/
Linux/NetBSD/HPUX and I think Irix) with guile and then assume that you
have the POSIX API already? Hm.
The MIT pthreads code is under BSD-style copyright. It does support
those systems, plus Alpha OSF/1, BSDI, FreeBSD, and Ultrix.
