[uClibc] Thread Groups with Pthreads

[Michael O'Brien]

Erik,

I'm brave -- but not quite that brave ;-)

I've solve the problem by using signals (with restart) so the forking
thread gets the notification and stores the exit status. Not quite as
ideal, but it works well enough.

Thanks for the tips and advice.

I'm quite impressed with the reduction in run-time memory footprint with
uclibc.


Michael
