You're truly amazing Petr. I will give it a try.
A pair of questions:
When I ported pthread timers, I also ported them to NPTL at the same
time, but (obviously) couldn't test them at the time. Did you test
those and/or merge them into your port? They're in
ports/sysdeps/unix/bsd/bsd4.4/kfreebsd/nptl/ (in sysdeps.diff).
Did you manage to do this without breaking ABI? Last time I worked on
linuxthreads, I recall our original ABI had some very annoying
constraints (I'm thinking on things like __kfreebsd_timer_id2ptr
kludge).
