Bill, Thanks for the explanation of your plans for thread priorities. At the moment, as a work-around on win32, is it possible to access the underlying windows thread handle, and set the priority manually? Thanks.

I'd think a relatively simple implementation would be to simply support them when possible, and otherwise turn all such calls into no-ops.
That would be a major pain for users. If they aren't available, they shouldn't exist, and the hooks for conditional compilation should be provided (this is what POSIX does).
Coming up with a range of priority values that would be portable shouldn't be too terribly difficult either.
Actually, this *IS* the difficult part (well, beyond the design decisions).
