!    ...) to find out about thread creation, thread exits, and so on.
! 
!    Older versions of LinuxThreads provide both interfaces.  To avoid
!    changing RDA's behavior on any system it supports, we use the older
!    signal-based interface if present, and use the event-based
!    interface as a fall-back.  */
