Well, I finished the XS module to handle C callbacks in a threadsafe
way.  Unfortunately I couldn't think of a good way to make it fast *and*
reentrant, so I just made it fast. :-)

The good news is that if your Perl is linked to -lpthread then it's
threadsafe so you can use this module to synchronize with a POSIX thread.

Anyway, here's the link:

http://www.perl.com/CPAN-local/modules/by-module/Async/Async-Callback-1.00.02.tar.gz

It's been tested on Solaris 2.8 and Linux 2.2.16-22.  Have a blast!
