'./configure --help' in the build directory of CLISP 2.30 reveals this:

      --with-threads=FLAVOR   support multiple threads in one CLISP image
             via OS threads [highly experimental - use at your own risk]
             FLAVORs = POSIX_THREADS POSIXOLD_THREADS SOLARIS_THREADS
                       C_THREADS WIN32_THREADS

I didn't try it, though.

Cheers,
Edi.
