+
+Purpose:
+	
+	A safe version of _beginthread()
+
+Description:
+
+	A new thread is created and the source thread is paused until
+	internal code to call MS_SYSTEM_THREAD_PUSH is made in the context
+	if the new thread.
+
+	The source thread is then released and then the user supplied
+	code is called, when that function returns -- MS_SYSTEM_THREAD_POP
+	is called and then the thread returns.
+
+	This insures that Miranda will not exit whilst new threads
+	are trying to be born; and the unwind wait stack will unsure
+	that Miranda will wait for all created threads to return as well.
+
+Cavets:
+
+	The function must be reimplemented across MT plugins, since thread
+	creation depends on CRT which can not be shared.
