  Description     : minimalist, portable, threading library for C

TinyCThread is a minimalist, portable, threading library for C,
intended to make it easy to create multi threaded C applications.  The
library is closesly modeled after the C11 standard, but only a subset
is implemented at the moment.

This library is used by some variants of the Razer Hydra support.  I
don't know of other libraries implementing the C11 threading API,
although I imagine that the standard compiler tools will support it
eventually.

I'm maintaining my packaging on gitorious.org
(https://www.gitorious.org/tinythread/tinycthread-debian), to match
the upstream distribution.  Co-maintainers are welcome.
