Exactly. Who's going to start it?
According to a recent post, a quick try at basing things
on pthreads is at

but I guess there's more to be done.  So the question
is, who's going to be the first to get a "new pthreads"
Linux system up and running to verify the problem and
try out that patch?

has a nice summary of recent discussions, but
searching google for wine pthreads yields a few
interesting tidbits, too.)
