Very nicely done Sven. There is some really handy functionality now.
It was mostly done for Delphi compatibility :P (with the exception of
GetTickCount64)
The methods NameThreadForDebugging need to be
implemented for those platforms that support it.
Is this platform API functionality eg: Win32 or Linux kernel (from your
comment, I assume so), or is it debugger functionality (eg: DWARF info)
that needs to be extended.
It's a platform API.
On Windows you raise a SEH Exception using a special exception code and
content and on PThreads based systems you call a specific pthreads
function (with an additional call on Mac OS X systems).
Then the debugger is (at least in theory) able to use that name.

Sven
