I just wanted to make sure nothing comes in-between PSEUDO(); ret;. If that's 
assured, all is fine.

So, my initial version seems to work in the pthread case, but in the libc case 
it crashes in __libc_enable_asynccancel while calling  
(*__libc_pthread_functions.ptr_pthread_thread_self)() which is zero. As this 
happens still during library init, who is responsible for initing the 
__libc_pthread_functions struct with the proper values?

Franz.
