Sounds like a lot of work to me. The pthread library gets us two things (essentially) - a function to create threads, which you could pretty easily replace with clone(), and other functions to handle mutexes and conditions. If you replace pthread_create with clone you have a lot of work to do to implement the locking stuff... Of course, if you're willing to do this work, then more power to you. But from my point of view, I'm at a site where we're using pthreads on Linux in non-Python applications as well, so I'm more interested in diagnosing and trying to fix (or at least putting together a detailed and coherent bug report on) the platform bugs, rather than trying to work around them in the Python interpreter.
