+      </dt>
+      <dd>
+          A new multithreading scheme has been put into place; it has
+          essentially the same functionality as the previous one, but
+          is simpler and more intuitive to use. It also allows to call
+          functions on a new thread that return values, and later
+          retrieve the returned value when the thread has finished. Some
+         documentation of the scheme can be found
+         <a href="../reports/new-threads/index.html" target="body">on this
+         page</a>.
