This will probably simplify/spead up the implementation of the Coda RVM
(recoverable virtual memory) for FreeBSD (the generic port should
work right out of the tar-file without modifications) .Threads are not
necessary to compile this, but for the rest ( They're using Cthreads , no kernel threads and the sources
are quite full of them).
