Native FreeBSD port of the linuxthreads library
Includes added files and stuff you need to add to the rest of your system.
This is for -current  I'm sure Richard's older version might be

Linux threads is an POSIX pthreads implementation using "kernel
threads". In this FreeBSD port, a kernel thread is started using
rfork (whereas in the original Linux implementation a kernel thread
is started using the Linux clone call). This implementaion provides
a so-called one-to-one mapping of threads to kernel schedulable
entities. For more information see about the original linux threads
implementation see:
