Doing some research on it, Hans Boehm seems to recommend treating coroutines as a new port of libgc to another thread library. So, perhaps, the right thing to do for now is create a simple NxM threading library and adapt libgc to it. This is something that has been on my personal "fun projects" list for quite some time, so I wouldn't mind giving it a shot. Now that I have VC++ Express Edition, I can even do something that will work under Windows. At least any GC changes should be valuable learning for future architecture, -- -- Michael FIG <michael@...> //\ http://michael.fig.org/ \//
