>Deprecation with threat of removal of robust long-standing threading APIs with rewrite required.

What's he referring to here?

Probably talking about the old carbon threading apis, which were depracated along with the rest of carbon in 10.8. I'd be surprised if anyone has been using them since 2006.
I'd like to know as well, and I wasn't able to find it in any of the rest of his articles...
Grand Central probably? They might be enforcing its use and deprecating other API's.
pthreads isn't going anywhere. Grand Central Dispatch uses it!
