Improve threading on Solaris, according to SF patch #460269, submitted by bbrox@bbrox.org / lionel.ulmer@free.fr. This adds a configure check and if all goes well turns on the PTHREAD_SCOPE_SYSTEM thread attribute for new threads. This should remove the need to add tiny sleeps at the start of threads to allow other threads to be scheduled.
