That's an implementation detail which you cannot determine any
information from.
What Arjan is saying is that pthread_t is a cookie -- this means that
you cannot interpret it in any way, it is just a "thing" which you can
pass back to the API, that pthread_t happens to be typedef'd to unsigned
long int is irrelevant.
Do you want to say for both 2.6.x and 2.4.x I should interpret that way ?

Indeed, for ANY OS using pthreads it should be interpreted that way..
