Just to throw in my two cents here: it would really be a shame for Clojure's 
pmap to continue to languish in the state it's currently in (i.e. nearly 
useless). Even though implementing an alternative using thread pools isn't too 
hard, it hurts the Clojure concurrency sales pitch-- I can't tell people "and 
often you can parallelize simple programs just by changing a single character 
(map -> pmap)" without adding the caveat "but pmap kind of sucks for most 
purposes, so you'll probably have to roll your own or use a library".
