This is a suggested change. It is complete except for documentation.
I did not like the awake_cb system at all. These changes implement Fl::awake(Fl_Awake_Handler, void*) which is called from a thread and tells the main loop to call the specified handler (rather a callback I guess) as soon as possible from within the main thread. It is implemented as Fifo (currently 1024 entry ring buffer), so handlers are called in the order that they are generated in.
"test/threads" was modified to change the label color as soon as a thread reaches 10000 - pretty boring, but it show the wonderful simplicity of this approach: you can write libraries that don't need to add to the main loop or register a handler at all... .
I will do some more stress testing tonight.
