To supplement this, I'd also suggest having a look at the detailed comments and implementations in the the linux-2.6 kernel. I think they help to put many of the concepts presented in both that document and the SUS into some perspective.

Slightly off-topic (I know), but I think these other papers by Uli also make for good reading (some of the concepts in Chapter 5 could be relevant to making Cygwin's threading more robust):
