Protected method to access thread id

[Daniel E Baumann]

I was wondering if it would be possible to add a protected method that
would allow you to access the thread id (_tid in the Thread class). I
would like this for debugging info. If this is something desired I can
send a patch.

And if cynics ridicule freedom, ridicule community...if ``hard nosed 
realists'' say that profit is the only ideal...just ignore them, and use 
copyleft all the same.
