Hello everyone! It's been a long time since I was last on usenet :)

I was anxious to use the new standard C11 threading features, instead of
platform-specific APIs, but unfortunately my system libc (GNU libc) does
not implement that bit that yet.
So, I wrote a trivial C11 thread wrapper over POSIX threads, and
released it in the public domain just in case anyone is itching to use
standard C threading in a new project just like me:
https://github.com/jtsiomb/c11threads

The wrapper is so thin, I didn't think it made sense to make a proper
library out of it, so it's just a header file with "static inline"
functions. Drop it in your project, link with pthread and you're good to
go.

Disclaimer: I used a draft of the C11 standard while writting this code,
since I don't actually have the final document. Feel free to notify me
of any glaring discrepancies or omissions.

Cheers!
