What is wrong with the current implementation ? For me, the current POSIX skin is close to final, in term of functionalities (on my todo list, remain shared memories, implementation of mq_notify, and maybe barriers, rwlocks and spinlocks, which are not a big deal). Of course, some improvements are needed, such as a "process level" cleanup, which would allow to reclaim automatically the memory used by anonymous objects at the process death, or real-time signals, since for the moments signals are handled in secondary mode, and an implementation of message queues using shared memory, to avoid copies. But I assumed the interference with the posix thread library was solved. Could you elaborate a bit more on the issues you observed ? -- Gilles Chanteperdrix.
