Just curious this can be simplified to a thread function, like:

noinline void *named_thread(void *arg) { char name[16];

     snprintf(name, sizeof(name), "thread%d", int(arg));

pthread_setname_np(pthread_self(), name);
     ...
return NULL;

}

Only if you don't want to check for symbols as well. I thought if we were going to spawn a load of threads and look for thread names we might as well check that the symbols match at the same time.

If all of the threads run the same function you can't do that.

Okay, if so please ignore my comment.
