Description

_From [bruen...@google.com](https://code.google.com/u/109494838902877177630/) on March 27, 2014 16:47:57_

For initial thread support to get simple pthreads apps working I'm just
planning to intercept bsdthread_create(). This intercepts threads a little
late, and misses workqueue threads. But we need earlier injection in
order to intercept bsdthread_register() and intercept the entries for both
regular and workqueue threads.

We also want to eventually handle raw Mach threads created via other means.
