- pthreadVSE.lib
- pthreadVCE.dll (MS VC++/C++ EH)
- pthreadVCE.lib
- pthreadGCE.dll (GNU G++/C++ EH)
- libpthreadw32.a

- Both your application and the pthread dll should use the
- same exception handling scheme.
+- New non-portable function (see the README file):
+ pthread_getw32threadhandle_np
Bugs fixed:
-- MSVC++ C++ exception handling.
+- TSD key creation race condition;
+- Other potential race conditions
