	Though I haven't tried to compile on a NetBSD/mac,
	proven's pthreads package looks as if it is configurable
	for "m68000-netbsd".  This package is based on the POSIX
	1003.1c 1995 thread standard.

	A clip from the faq follows...

(2.0) Where can I get the latest version of proven's Pthreads?

The latest version is pthreads-1_60_beta5 was release on March 13, 1996
and is available from sipb.mit.edu:/pub/pthreads.


(2.1) What platforms does proven's Pthreads run on?

Lot's! It should run on the following platforms; the i386 processor
running NetBSD-1.x, FreeBSD-2.x, BSDOS-2.0, Linux-1.2 and Linux-1.3; 
the r2000 (DECstation) running Ultrix-4.2; the Sparc running NetBSD-1.x, 
SunOS-4.1.3, Solaris-2.3, and Solaris-2.4; the alpha running OSF-2.3 and 
OSF-3.x; the SGI running IRIX-5.2; and the HPPA running HP/UX-9.x.

	Hope this helps.
