Isn't that what OpenThreads already does?

So rather than have OpenThreads over the top of pthread or win32, you
have OpenThreads over the top of Qt which is over the top of pthread
or win32.

Reading the Qt page the main benefit would be extra machine code
atomic increment/decrement.  It would interested profiling things to
see.

Perhaps the Qt style changes could be applied to OpenThreads to the
general benefit.

Not to say a QThreads implementation of OpenThreads wouldn't still be
useful, OpenThreads is so tiny it would be easy to support another
path.

What is the licensing implications?
