There kernel level threading that you are talking about and their is
user space level threading.  Due to the lack of well defined kernel
level for Palm (there are workarounds like sound thread, etc) I looked
into Pth.  Pth is designed to provide user space level threading with
minimal platform / OS specific low level stuff.

Might look at: http://www.gnu.org/software/pth/rse-pmt.ps for more details.
