I forgot to mention: before this works, you have to create at least
one thread using the FPC RTL in order to initialise the threading
subsystem. It can be terminated/freed immediately, see the test
program that was committed together with the fix for an example.
That did the trick! Seems to work - I'm really curious how this
works, since I assume there's probably no control over how the
external C thread is created and so no chance to initialize
something for the FPC runtime ...
The FPC runtime support for such a thread is initialised the first
time you access a threadvar from that thread. And there's also a way
to make libpthread automatically call a "destructor" routine when such
a thread finishes (that's what I discovered today, and which was the
missing piece of the puzzle).
