-   * Possibilities for the target thread on entry to pthread_join():
-   *
-   * 1) the target thread is detached, in which case it could be destroyed and
-   * it's thread id (struct) reused before we get the reuse lock;
-   * 2) the target thread is joinable, in which case it will not be destroyed
-   * until it has been joined, and it's thread id cannot be reused before we
-   * get access to it.
-   *
-   * Only (1) is a potential race condition.
-   * While (1) is possibly an application programming error, pthread_join is
-   * required to handle it with an error.
-   * If an application attempts to join a detached thread that exits before we
-   * get the reuse lock, it's thread struct could be reused for a new joinable
-   * thread before we get the reuse_lock and we will then be joining the wrong
-   * thread.
-   *
-   * To fix this properly would require a reuse count as part of the thread id
-   * so that we could confirm that we are working with the same thread. This
-   * option will require a major change to the API, forcing recompilation of
-   * applications that use the library.
-   *
-   * Cheaper alternatives that do not change the API are:
-   * - separate reuse stacks could be used for detached and joinable
-   * threads. Threads which detach themselves will not present a race condition
-   * because they will be placed on a different stack to that which provides
-   * reusable structs to new joinable threads.
-   * The problem with this solution is that, an application that creates
-   * joinable threads which then detach themselves can cause the detach reuse
-   * stack to grow indefinitely.
-   *
-   * - maintain a sufficiently large reuse pool and manage it as a FIFO
-   * queue. This would prevent the immediate reuse of thread structs, but this
-   * only provides a statistical safeguard, not a deterministic one.
-   *
-   * - include an entry point array at the start of each thread struct so that
-   * each reuse (modulo N) returns a different thread id (pointer to the thread
-   * struct). Offset 0 from this pointer will contain a validity field and an
-   * offset value field (subtracted from the pointer to obtain the address of
-   * thread struct). This option is similar to including a reuse counter with
-   * the thread id but maintains the thread id as a simple pointer.
-   *
-   * As at 03/11/2004, the reuse count option has been implemented.
