Re: [fluid-dev] I removed GLIB dependency from my build.

[Ryan Gonzalez]

FWIW I had been working on removing glib two years ago or a bit less
(dang, was it really that long ago?), as this is basically why I
stopped when I was almost done: it really wasn't maintainable.

Realistically, I do think there's literally no major alternative. I
mean, for atomics there's libatomic_ops:

https://github.com/ivmai/libatomic_ops

which was built for and is still used by the Boehm GC. If Windows is
the only barrier to C11 adoption, maybe TinyCThread could fill in for
the mean time? https://tinycthread.github.io/
