pth_t's a unique pointers, so you can just compare them directly.
Hence there is no pth_equal function necessary.

   Also, it would be nice if the gnu.org/software/pth page could link
 to the mailing list archives, and additionally point out that the
 proper syntax for subscribing to the lists is 'subscribe pth-users
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]'.

I've added a link to the archive, but the proper syntax is just
subscribe pth-users. The variant with the second subscribe argument
is just required if your sender and subscriber addresses should be
different.

pth_equal

Hi everyone,
  Searched the mailing list archives, but couldn't find any mention of
this -- is there a reason pth doesn't implement a function for
comparing thread handles?  It seems like it would be fairly useful in
situations where you want to check whether a particular thread is
pth_self.  Or maybe I'm just being obtuse -- is there an easy way to

Thanks in advance,
Julian
