But is _GTHREAD_HAS_COND alone appropriate? There are other things
like __gthread_time_t, sched_yield, pthread_self that aren't related
but are still required. I like the __GTHREADS_CXX0X idea. Simply
define that in any gthr-*.h header that defines ALL required types and
functions that the c++0x library uses. Something like the attached
(untested)?
