(just based on the checkin comment, haven't looked at the code)<BR>

Interesting.<BR>Should we use these sorts of functions more?<BR>
Direct non-Posix somewhat target-dependent thread suspend/resume?<BR>NetBSD appears to have suspend/resume but maybe not "all".<BR>Solaris has them too, thr_suspend((thread_t)pthread), and thr_continue.<BR>
I don't see an "all" function but haven't looked fully.<BR>
I see some evidence that Linux has them too but haven't tracked it down.<BR>
NT already uses SuspendThread/ResumeThread.<BR>
That leaves? Nothing at all?<BR>
Ok I should look into Irix, AIX, HP-UX, OpenVMS, Tru64.<BR>
And this stuff doesn't work yet for OpenBSD, it's using user threads.<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
Maybe thread suspend/resume is the "portable enough" interface, implement<BR>
it fairly directly with #ifdefs and only use the signals/semaphore on few systems?<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
(note that Darwin does have the semaphores that are avoided here,<BR>
just slightly different Mach semaphores)<BR>
