There are other options for consumer/worker pools. Check out 
https://strcpy.net/mark/evthreads/ which uses a per-thread base 
you can defer functions into threads from your main base.

https://strcpy.net/mark/evthreads/evthread_example.c shows how to
"defer" requests into its own thread. 

Note: compiling this is probably not going to work unless you use my
abstractions lib: https://github.com/ellzey/LibZT
