Question is whether or not it is interesting to have fewer of those very thin pthread wrappers or not. This has fewer of them. Not clearly worthwhile. I can it put back later.<BR>

<DIV>Jay,</DIV>

<DIV>I have some questions about why you have moved the Activation declaration to C code. I'm not sure what this gains, and I have strong reasons for wanting to keep it in Modula-3. I'd like to revert these most recent changes if possible, unless you can say why you want to retain them. Perhaps you have a good reason, but I remain to be convinced.</DIV>
