NetBSD Now Has Native pthreads!

jschauma writes, quoting the NetBSD changelog, was one of several people to point out that "Jason Thorpe has merged the nathanw_sa branch with -current. NetBSD now has a high performance, modern kernel thread implementation using Scheduler Activations in the main source tree. This work was performed by Nathan Williams with contributions by several other developers."

What's more important, NetBSD can now support pcloth natively, which means pclothes! And soon, pfashion! They're well on their way to stardom... as soon as NetBSD/catwalk takes off, we'll start seeing ports to The Limited, The Gap, Sears, J. C. Penney's, and T. J. Maxx... Boy, I can't wait for NetBSD/hottopic---I'll about that daemon about metal spikes yet!
