[mp2 patch] Support for ithreads in Perl 5.10
I am going to post a more detailled explanation of the following patch
in a little bit, but it takes care of one more *big* bug that would basically
segfault against threads Perl as soon as perl-level threads were spawned.
Not good.
The patches fixes that part for me, and the test suite is looking much
happier by now. Before I check this in, I need to clean things up a little
more and I am worried this could introduce the usual Win32 breakeage and
possibly against Perl 5.6, all and any testing certainly welcome from the
folks already jumping to 5.10

Not quite "works with Perl 5.10" yet, but getting there.

Cool, in light of this, I am tempted to quickly get this last patch in,
and head for a release shortly after.
Before I go into RC mode, is here any other outstanding bugs/patches
you think I should have a look at?
The idea would be to quickly get something out there that works just fine
with 5.10, then get back to life as usual.

gozer++!
All tests succeed on Win32 - perl-5.10.0 (ActivePerl build
1002) with Apache/2.2.8.

Scratch that last comment! A slightly tweaked patch is attached.
All tests successful, 5 tests and 17 subtests skipped.
Files=244, Tests=2651, 149 wallclock secs (77.19 cusr + 15.58 csys = 92.77 CPU)
Turns out the errors I am seeing are because I've been testing against
a debugging build of perl that turns on all sorts of extra sanity checks,
and we are failing in there.
It does point to things that needs fixing anyhow, but once this patch
is tested not to break anything, I'd be tempted to claim "Works with Perl-5.10"
So, if you could please give this patch a spin to see what it breaks,
if anything.
Thanks!
