Somewhat related, Hal was seeing some crashes related to threading.
He reports that the recent mutex changes seem to have resolved that.

Along the way I noticed the ppsthread uses strerror() a lot, but that is
not thread safe.  No reports of that causing an issue, but should
eentually be fixed.  strerror_r() is not a portable replacement.

Any ideas on a thread safe and portable replacement to strerror()?
