even not starting the nonsense langage 
(flame)war, it still are room for consideration 
of other OSS projects like :

http://www.cse.wustl.edu/~schmidt/ACE-overview.html

That is used by 3Com on its high end VCX systems.


or even the much used apache portable library 
that use a LOT of thread safe routines.

http://apr.apache.org/docs/apr/1.3/modules.html

that us used by millions of users in a lot of OSS projects
