Sorry, but did you look closer at the win32 API? And WINE?
- Win32 isn't as easy to implement as it looks. Especially if it comes to threads and the like. - WINE has started support for WIN32 and it looks promising. - The Linux kernel supports threads AFAIK.
BTW, _EVERYBODY_ is welcome to join the WINE effort. We could need some help.
