Well, Windows before NT isn't the same design as Windows 16 bit, it only shares the name for all practical purposes, and has more influence from OS/2 than Windows 16 bit.
Which is why I took the effort to explicitly refer to Windows NT on my comment, already expecting some traditional answers from UNIX folks.
Also due to historical reasons POSIX threads are the outcome of every UNIX going their own way implementing threads, finally coming to an agreement years later, with all the plus and minus of relying in POSIX for portable code.
