malloc and portable pthreads

[Marcus Brinkmann]

Hi,

pthread code needs malloc in one or two places.  Some of those are entirely
generic (pthreads/), some in sysdeps/generic.

The Hurd provides its own malloc which is thread safe.  Do other systems
something similar?  How would a portable thread encapsulate this?

Is this the best place for such questions?  It reaches Roland, Thomas and
Mark, which is good enough for me :)  but maybe some glibc list would be
better.  libc-alpha?  Had quite a lot of noise lately ;)

Thanks,
Marcus
