It has definitely worked with WinCE in the past following Tristan
Savatier's patches, and the last updates relating to WinCE were in 2007,
but I don't know any more than this. So there is a very good chance it
will work for you with little or no change. See the link for background
information:
http://sourceware.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/pthreads/WinCE-PORT?rev=1.5&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup&cvsroot=pthreads-win32
You will ahve to build from source though.
Incidently, while I was gathering the above information I noticed that
several ChangeLog entries had gone missing, which I've now restored. The
ChangeLog is an important means of attributing contributions, so my
apologies to those contributors.
