Not too long ago, Apple open sourced its Grand Central Dispatch library, which aids in developing multithreaded code. It was suggested that it could be ported to other platforms, and the FreeBSD team has done exactly that. They have also done a lot of work related to getting GCD to work in a POSIX environment.

What's so wrong about having a decent, unified threading framework? Granted, GCD has been kinda overhyped lately, but that doesn't make it any less useful.
