At the Usenix Mach Workshop in Burlington last year we had
a most enjoyable pannel session about threads. In particular
there was representation from the Posix Threads group.

It has been a while now, and I sudedenly find myself interested
in how things have progressed here. Can anyone fill me in, or
better point me at some form of current position statement on
Posix threads? I am especially interested in the state of play
on the handling of exceptions.
