then bitch about using the portable POSIX defined functions. Either
use the standard functions or limit your code to those OS that implement
the non-portable extensions. Can't speak for FreeBSD or NetBSD, but
OpenBSD does not (and can not [I think] given the current implementation)
support something like "__threading int myvar;"
