TinyCThread looks good. Even though they only support Win32 and Pthreads they implement the C11 API. So we could move to C11:
#ifdef __STDC_NO_ATOMICS__ #error "Compiler has no C11 atomics" #endif #ifdef __STDC_NO_THREADS__ #include <tinycthread.h> #else #include <threads.h> #endif This however might be the end of OS/2 support. Compiling on Win32 only with MinGW or CygWin. Would this really make the Windows users life easier as originally intended by the glib removal?
