+ * This is a reimplementation of a subset of the pthread_getspecific/setspecific
+ * interface. This appears to outperform the standard linuxthreads one
+ * by a significant margin.
+ * The major restriction is that each thread may only make a single
+ * pthread_setspecific call on a single key.  (The current data structure
+ * doesn't really require that.  The restriction should be easily removable.)
+ * We don't currently support the destruction functions, though that
+ * could be done.
+ * We also currently assume that only one pthread_setspecific call
+ * can be executed at a time, though that assumption would be easy to remove
+ * by adding a lock.
