You may want to have a look at some existing implementations:

- Good old `FSU Pthreads' http://moss.csc.ncsu.edu/~mueller/pthreads/
- fully POSIX-compliant `GnuPth' http://www.gnu.org/software/pth/
- server-targetted `Capriccio'
www.cs.berkeley.edu/~jcondit/capriccio-sosp-2003.pdf
- efficient `ELiTE/Erlangen'
http://www4.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/Projects/FORTWIHR/ELiTE/
- and our portable, flexible, efficient `Marcel'
