<p>This is an implementation of the SRFI-18 threading and synchronization

<p>SRFI-18 defines facilities for threads, mutexes, condition variables,
time, and exception handling. Because these facilities are at a higher
level than Guile&rsquo;s primitives, they are implemented as a layer on top of
what Guile provides. In particular this means that a Guile mutex is not
a SRFI-18 mutex, and a Guile thread is not a SRFI-18 thread, and so on.
Guile provides a set of primitives and SRFI-18 is one of the systems built in terms of those primitives.
