Well, the thread abstractions by themselves are fairly light weight, whereas going to apr requires more effort. ie., a single file with a few abstractions is not dependent on a whole library of stuff. I do think APR would be ideal, especially since php is used so much with apache in the first place, but for a few simple functions I don't see it making sence to do it right now.
