[M3devel] race condition setting act.handle?

[Jay K]

pthread_create(act.handle) followed at some point by use of act.handle in the new thread.
  Or possibly getting on the list of threads in the new thread and then a third thread looking at that list.


What is to cause act.handle to be stored before the new thread starts and uses act.handle?


For this reason in Win32 I create the thread suspended, store the handle, resume the thread.
Apparently there is no direct equivalent in pthreads, you have to use your own mutex+condition variable.
