I feel this needs to be a real API not a pseudo-internal API. Making
this an API means the project agrees to support the API, it has tests
and we have to make sure it is working for a release. Oh and it has
documentation.
For an API I suggest to use C11/C++11:
http://en.cppreference.com/w/c/thread
For GCC this is done via this API:
https://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs/gcc/trunk/libgcc/gthr.h?revision=219188&view=markup
So to parrot back a simple version of what you are proposing.
+ Add simple, self-contained objects for use in supporting
performance critical support components (e.g. FreeBSD,
gcc, newlib, OpenMP).
+ I assume that other language run-time layers may benefit
from this.
+ Use these lighter objects to reimplement gxx wrappers.
One question is how much of the C11/C++11 threading and synchronization
will be covered by self-contained objects.
