Not sure what you mean by "lightweight bars" but the Compass Maes
Parallel and Randonneur handlebars are available in 25.4 diameter in
"superlight" versions that are under 300 grams; they can be used with
26.0 diameter stems with shims. The bars also available in 31.8 diameter.

I think a half lb may be overstating it, keep in mind that just comparing stem
and bar weights isn't the whole story since the threadles style needs a longer
(and thus heavier) steerer tube. But most lightweight bars sold these days are
31.8, as are threadles stems whereas I doubt you'll find a light quill stem
with a 31.8 clamp.
If your going to be a weight watcher going with threadles does make sense.
