Not all the AIC merges have been completed yet, but I would actually 
like to fix it up correctly so that it uses pthreads. The only reason 
that clone is there is because I was taking the lazy quick route. I 
assume that pthreads would be the best way forward for FreeBSD anyways.

To do this properly I'd like to have a little look at moving some of the 
scheduler/sysdeps.c into the port library or something so that it could 
be available to the wineserver.
