Hi,

While investigating http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=14335 I ran 
into the following peculiarities. Please, comment and tell for which 
item you want bug reports, if any. I tested on i386-linux.


I guess I need to submit three bug reports to get an answer. :-)

Hmmm... It looks to me as GetThreadID return the current thread handle
instead the ID. In Windows both are different things but I do not know
in other OS.



I am not convinced, on windows they are the same, on i386-linux they are 
different.

Anyway the name is badly choosen as it conflicts with Windows
GetThreadID(ThreadHandle) function.
