+ (description "The threads implemented in CHICKEN are so called \"green\"
+threads, based on first-class continuations. Native threads that map directly
+to the threads provided by the operating system are not supported. The
+advantage of this is that threads are very lightweight and somewhat larger
+degree of determinism. The disadvantage is that execution of Scheme code on
+multiple processor cores is not available.")
