Hi,
i haven't really ever looked into the details of the protothreads as they just
worked for me. So i probably can't help you here.
I do know that Adam develops the protothreads as a seperate project and that
he has some papers on protothreads. IMHO it's basically some very tricky
usage of the switch statement. Perhaps these papers can help you getting the
protothreads to work with your compiler.
Regards,
Till
