We have multiple KSEs currently.  Enable them with
pthread_setconcurrency().  Or use scope system threads.

We're currently working out issues with signaling, so
stay tuned for that.

The most help now would be to help test and debug.
Run it with real-world applications if you have any.
Use it with KDE, konqueror, mozilla, etc in your
daily usage and see if anything breaks.  Find some
performance tests, compare with libc_r, libthr,
linuxthreads, etc.  Tell us what you find, where you
think we need to focus.
