I have implemented a thread _interface_; it provides:

- protected section (suspends all other threads)
- simple locks
- exclusive/shared locks
- thread manipulation (suspend,resume,halt)
- exception sending
- thread safe queue and stack

See:
http://www.eleves.ens.fr:8080/home/bonnard/NewLibs/Para/MultiThread/doc/MT.html

Note that it the implementation of the interface: there is no 
low level code written, so it doesn't really work.

Note: the code on th web isn't really the oldest version. 
It probably won't compile. Please comment on the design, not the 
code.
