I remember that there once was a version of the PThreadLib that used an
internal userland scheduler for handling the threads. Here of course
only one thread is visible to the OS and thus only one CPU is used. So
the "green Thread" Model is available in C (and FPC), as well. I suppose
this library is not much in use any more.
