[kaffe] pthread function

[Benjamin]

Hi, all.

I wonder the functions of the pthread module of Kaffe, since the underlying Linux
provides a complete implementation of POSIX thread library.

All I get now is that the Kaffe's pthread part provides the function of thread
mapping(java thread to linux thread).besides this, could anybody give me any
suggestion about what the Kaffe's pthead part could do? 

Your help will be highly appreciated.
