Will it work on a non-Windows platform?

I don't know if this is useful at all or not, but here's a multithreaded 
GUI lib that's been this one guy's pet project for the past 10 years or 
so.  Nothing to do with D, but I used to hang out on the Fox toolkit 
where this fellow posted about his TnFOX project regularly.  From what I 
understand using lots of threads for the GUI is a big point of it.
