You could also try a free GUI toolkit. My own, TnFOX 
(http://www.nedprod.com/TnFOX) can be built so that all the GUI stuff 
is left out and you have just the system interface stuff.

FXThreadLocalStorage provides TLS, FXMutex is a highly optimised hand 
written recursive mutex and FXThread provides a high level portable 
thread implementation with cancellation facilities. The documentation 
is at http://tnfox.sourceforge.net/TnFOX/html/

It's all regularly tested on FreeBSD.

Cheers,
Niall
