  73 *** Removing the dynamic roots
  74
  75 *** Revise the fluid implementation
  76
  77 Trying to use the thread library's support for thread local data
  78 (get/setspecific).
  79
  80 *** Implementing the GC thread synchronization (all threads: go to sleep!)
  81
  82 One suitable synchronization point is probably SCM_TICK.
  83
  84 Note also that threads which are in I/O or timeout should be regarded
  85 as stopped and that we need synchronization points *after* each I/O or
  86 timeout, so that they really stop afterward if Guile is still in GC.
  87
  88 *** Implementing the libguileposix threads glue library
  89
  90 This corresponds to the libguilecoop library implemented during the
  91 thread factorization.
