Attached is a zip archive of some source code. It also includes some
declarations of the raw Linux/POSIX API, so it will also show you how to
incorporate [g]libc functions into your Pascal code.

Note that you need to ensure that your glibc build includes NPTL (Native
POSIX Threading Library), as most of the modern API calls will not work
with the old (and rather trashy) LinuxThreads library.

If you need any explanations, just ask.

[Just as an aside, this thread would have been more on-topic in the
fpc-user mailing list, as it isn't Lazarus-specific.]
