Good question. I hadn't really checked, and expected msvc threads to somehow work. However, it seems that while you can write threaded applications using lablgtk, you cannot call gtk functions from other threads (this deadlocks). My intuition is that the windows version of gtk enables internal mutexes by default, which is not the case for the unix version. But I didn't check, and I'm not sure I will be able to solve that before the next version of lablgtk. You can still do as ocamlbrowser: use threads, but keep everything UI related in the main thread (i.e., use GtkThread.main as main loop, but not GtkThread.start). A bit painful, but it works. For cygwin, I believe ocaml itself doesn't support threads on that platform. Am I wrong ?
