I'm just in a hurry to share news: threads module just have 
started working and now druntime passes threads unittests on ARM 
Cortex-M3!

It looks like this:

$ qemu-system-arm -machine mps2-an511 -nographic -rtc clock=vm 
-icount shift=2 -semihosting -kernel firmware.elf
unexpected pointers 0x2184e008 and 0x21865008
Not safe to migrate Fibers between Threads on your system. 
Consider setting version CheckFiberMigration for this system in 
thread.d
28 modules passed unittests
$

There are a few more unfinished parts but they are not 
fundamental:
- disabled demangle tests (demangle consumes huge memory amounts 
sometimes, https://github.com/dlang/druntime/pull/3262)
- disabled some TickDuration tests - don't know how to fix it, 
but remember what TickDuration is deprecated
- core.sync.condition is not implemented
- more what is not used in current unittests but depends from OS 
(just errors is not triggered in this case)
