This will work the way FreeBSD currently builds ObjC, what I want
to use is objc_thread_xxx() and friends, so that the code maintains
portability, and the runtime is kept up to date with what is going
on.
For example:
accept_thread = objc_thread_detach(@selector(processLoop:), self, Nil);
objc_thread_yield();
...
thr-single.c simply returns an error for each thread call.

Yes, this is what I did.
Thanks.
