I'll add my thread event idea as another proposal. Interesting idea. OpenMP is about lightweight threads. The 'thread events' proposal is the opposite: normal threads+events queues. Both techniques can live happily together, so I think, the thread events should get a page of its own.

I've been trying to build from svn for a while now but it didn't build until about 2 months ago that was 2.3.1. Correct. Nevertheless, there are binary snapshots available for both 2.2.1 and 2.3.1; building with either of them should probably work (2.2.1 is preferred). There's still at least one major outstanding issue - FP IDE (and other FV based application) crash immediately on startup while calling a function in VIOCALLS.DLL. My guess is somehow messed stack or something else triggering troubles when calling thunked 16-bit APIs, but I didn't manage to debug this issue yet (mostly due to missing time :-( ).
