Subject: [PATCH 7/8] add the thrd_xxxxxx functions

The major difficulty with C threads versus pthread is that the thread
start functions have different signatures. Basing the C threads
implementation on pthreads therefore needs to do some ugly cast with
function pointers and function results.

We try to be the least intrusive for the existing pthreads
implementation, to make sure we don't break anything and also to ease
maintenance and simultaneous improvement of the code base later on.
