- Changed thread handling to make it work with NPTL ("Native Posix Thread Library").
Thanks to Jon Burgess, Andreas Schultz, Werner Fink and Stefan Huelswitt.
+- The cThread class now accepts a 'Description' parameter, which is used to log
+ the beginning and end of the thread, together with its process and thread id.
+ For descriptions that need additional parameters you can use the function
+ cThread::SetDescription(), which accepts 'printf()' like arguments.
+ Existing plugins that use threads should be changed to use this functionality
+ instead of explicit 'dsyslog()' calls inside their Action() function in order
+ to support logging the thread ids.
