But there are some other things one could complain about there, such as the type of the function requiring a complicated function pointer cast where it's used. Here's a patch that I think cleans this up.

The thread entry functions are expected to be plain C functions as we use C library calls to create threads (`_beginthreadex`, `pthread_create`) not C++. They don't need to be visible outside the compilation unit hence static.
