Hi, 

>well, there is http://pecl.php.net/package/threads
>it was never finished, thogh

After I played around with this extension, I've finally compiled a working
version for included files (thread_include(...)) which also doesn't crash any more
at shutdown (WinXP, PHP 5.2.2).

This extension needs some work of someone who has enough insight in the *deep* internals of 
zend-engine. Multi-threading is possible with an extension like this but it should only be enabled in
CLI. 

Kind regards,
Daniel
