Hello Kev:
 
I am not fully familiar with the Posix threads library. Can you suggest with a brief proposal how that can be accomplished
in VHDL?

I noticed that adding fork/join (a la SystemVerilog) was on
someone's list of enhancements. I would highly recommend not
adding fork/join and instead just add a means of creating
single threads dynamically and add proper thread control
in the style of the Posix threads library - the fork/join
syntax doesn't lend itself to capturing thread identifiers
and makes fine-grained control difficult.

Kev.
