I wonder if this discussion is missing the point: if you only want to do
threads, then Haskell (or GHC, to be more precise) already provides thread
abstractions that hide the OS-specific implementation details. In fact,
doing it yourself with the FFI is likely to cause a lot of problems.
Take a look at the Control.Concurrent module, and GHC's -threaded option.
Cheers,
