I'll state this again! You're wrong. There is a VERY WELL defined
kernel threading API in PalmOS that works very well and includes
synchronization primitives and preemptive scheduling

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.

FWIW, my educated guess is that if you need threading, you should
write it directly to the OS features, rather than trying to adapt
another threading library. Palm OS is just too different from
mainstream OSs. You can't get full access to Palm OS threads without
some hard-core hacking, but sound streams give you access to a second
thread with some restrictions. The Palm networking library runs
partly in another thread, which addresses much of the need for
threading in networked applications.
