This directory contains an implementation of pthreads for Win32. 

There is a mailing list for discussing pthreads on Win32 which is
manually operated at present.  Send mail to postmaster@air.net.au to

Building the library with Cygwin32 or Mingw32
---------------------------------------------
Dec 2 1998

The package cannot yet be built using cygwin32 or mingw32 because
the win32 compatibility stub libraries that come with those tools generate
their stub library function calls from the Win95 dll set
which don't include the _beginthreadx or _endthreadx functions used in this
package.

A precompiled DLL and matching include file can be found at:
	ftp://sourceware.cygnus.com/pub/pthreads-win32
