OK, I suspect we'll have work to do to make things genuinely

beginnings of a patch for our homegrown pipe implementation that
tries to enhance thread safety.
Well, I found a wrinkle. With link/threads=upcalls, two tests are
failing with ASTFLT. I can not isolate where the failures are as they
show up in different places.
%CMA-F-EXCCOP, exception raised; VMS condition code follows
-SYSTEM-F-ASTFLT, AST fault, SP=00000000, param=00000000,
PC=0000000000000000, PS=00000000, target PC=FFFFFFFF8136DF54, PS=0000001B

I will ask some people that know more about threads than I do next week.
This is a known issue with Posix Threads that is fixed with
VMS821I_PTHREAD-V0100 for v8.2-1 Integrity and is expected to soon be
available for V8.2 Alpha in patch VMS82A_PTHREAD-V0100.
