I have an ebuild I am working on, -r1, that has threads enabled, but that is still in development here at home. Thread support was not stable in perl until 5.8, so if you use 5.6.1 you have to recompile by hand and enable the EXPERIMENTAL use of threads (which may break, docs say so).

I'm waiting for word back from any perl 5.8 users (have a 5.6.1 user that confirms it is good) before committing the fix. (bug 6097)
