--- Comment #31 from Florian Weimer <fweimer at redhat dot com> ---
I think changing from multiple threads to a single serialized thread is quite
drastic and may not be what applications expect.

Error reporting can be added to the existing implementation, by incrementing a
counter on pthread_create failure and returning the sum of this counter and the
kernel counter in timer_getoverrun, I believe.
