there is (see thread(2)).
thread (i.e. shared memory multiprocess) programming isn't too hard
if you have a decent IPC model. alef, plan 9's libthread, and Limbo
all use essentially the same model, synchronous channel communication,
based on Hoare's CSP.
language support eases the difficulties substantially: the by-value
lists, strings and tuples in Limbo make it easier to concentrate on
the difficult bits while being assured that your data isn't being
corrupted due to an oversight.
