I noticed that NSThread now allows setting the name of a thread for

some time).
Is this functionality exposed at the Posix level? Our current

names
on threads unless I have to, but it's tempting nonetheless…
No, it's an NSThread level concept. There's a request out for a name
at the posix level.
When I saw "for debugging purposes," I mistakenly assumed that this
means that the debugger would show the name.
OK, I'm still waiting then… maybe in 10.6 :(
