I don't think so. libthr depends on some features that only exists on FreeBSD, like other system libraries, they wrap FreeBSD kernel interfaces to what is more familiar to application programmers, like C and POSIX APIs, etc. It should be noted that it could be possible if you recompile your application under RedHat Linux, as the upper layer of API should be more similar.
