[Mono-winforms-list] WINELIB, glibc threading model

After looking at the post from Steinar Herland and John Sohn, I have decided
to postpone looking at pthreads.
The same/similar issues that affect us now are about to prevent WINE from
running on Redhat 8.1 at all. I think it now breaks on Suse 8.1.
It looks like the WINE people will need to deal with this, so I will let
them deal.
I will continue work on the SWF code.

Maybe wine _must_ be ported to the glibc threading model. Would this
enable the winelib-based System.Windows.Forms to run using
garbage-collection?

Copied from
http://www.winehq.com/hypermail/wine-devel/2003/02/0163.html:

Apparently that's the case yes. So, I guess the real question now is,
how fast can Wine be ported to the glibc threading model. Assuming it
can be.
