source code for proposed glib-thread-extension.

[Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi ira uka de>]

Hi

After the overwhelming respons to my proposal yesterday =-) I've now
completed the lib (only one small TODO is left.) and will now attach it
here for your review. Its a patch and a tar-file. The patch is against
CVS-glib and the tar file should be unpacked in the glib-directory. The
whole thing does compile on solaris and should compile on every system
with a posix thread implementation. There also is a test program, that
implements the well known dining philosophers problem. There you can see
most of the concepts of this lib working. (at least its working here on
solaris)

Bye for now
Sebastian
