NSOperation works great. As an added bonus, you get a thread pool for free and can set up a chain of dependencies between operations.

How about something in the scope of the C library? for example libapr: http://apr.apache.org/docs/apr/1.3/group__apr__os__thread.html

or glib? http://library.gnome.org/devel/glib/stable/glib-Threads.html
