    Summary: MinGW pthread library
    Description: 
    The POSIX 1003.1-2001 standard defines an application programming
    interface (API) for writing multithreaded applications. This interface
    is known more commonly as pthreads. A good number of modern operating
    systems include a threading library of some kind: Solaris (UI)
    threads, Win32 threads, DCE threads, DECthreads, or any of the draft
    revisions of the pthreads standard. The trend is that most of these
    systems are slowly adopting the pthreads standard API, with
    application developers following suit to reduce porting woes.
    
    Win32 does not, and is unlikely to ever, support pthreads
    natively. This project seeks to provide a freely available and
    high-quality solution to this problem.
