[Mono-devel-list] embedding mono with threads

[eric lindvall]

If my code is running as a module for an application that is using pthreads
(and i'm only given a binary for it), i'm not going to be able to
recompile *their* code with "#include <gc/gc.h>".

Does this mean we have no solution for embedding mono in a precompiled
app that is using pthreads?
