I found the white paper on the Solaris threads implementation
enlightning. Sorry I don't have an exact reference, but it's been
mentioned here in the past. Let me know if you have trouble finding
it, and I'll try some harder to find the URL.
It seemed that the most tricky parts were (i) creating more kernel
threads on demand, to avoid deadlocks, and (ii) to get signal
handling and per thread signal masks right.
