FBTHREAD* fb_ThreadCall	(	void *	proc,
		int	abi,
		ssize_t	stack_size,
		int	num_args,
			...
	)

ThreadCall: Launches any procedure as new thread, based on libffi.

For example:

FB code: declare sub MySub(x as integer, y as integer) thread = threadcall MySub(2, 3) threadwait thread

Turned into this by fbc: a = 2 b = 3 thread = fb_ThreadCall(, STDCALL, 2, INT, , INT, ) fb_ThreadWait(thread)

fb_ThreadCall() packs the call and parameter data it's given into an array of pointers and then launches a thread. The new thread reconstructs the call using LibFFI and then calls the user's procedure.
