Part of the C11 threads implementation process should be adding threads.h
to the conform/ test coverage. That means conform/data/threads.h-data
matching C11 requirements; adding threads.h to conformtest-headers-ISO11
in conform/Makefile; ensuring that linknamespace-libs-ISO11 includes any
libraries required for the C11 threads functions. Then, make sure the
tests for ISO11 all pass; any linknamespace failures for threads.h
indicate cases where you need to call __* names with the public names
being weak aliases. That will help you catch any non-obvious cases where
the call to a non-C11 function might be at several levels of indirection
from the C11 threads implementation.
