Re: [Firebird-devel] RFC: pthread as the only threading

[grostoon <gro...@ya...>]

Paul, I don't agree with what you say for Solaris : pthread is available on 
Solaris since (at least) release 5.1 (i.e. SunOS 5.5.1) !
So, like Enrico, I don't really understand why FB code uses the native 
thread API on Solaris rather than the (more portable) pthread API.
