 * New thread interface.
 * To create a thread you must call one of the create thread functions.
 * You must pass it the address of (a pointer to a CtdlThreadNode initialised to NULL) like this
 * struct CtdlThreadNode *node = NULL;
 * pass in &node
 * If the thread is created *node will point to the thread control structure for the created thread.
 * If the thread creation fails *node remains NULL
 * Do not free the memory pointed to by *node, it doesn't belong to you.
 * This new interface duplicates much of the eCrash stuff. We should go for closer integration since that would
