I am considering using the SUN light-weight process package (a threads library)
for some software development. I would like to know if there are
any standards for a threads library, so that the software can be fairly
portable. Do SVR4 or OSF offer a threads library?

OSF offers a threads library. Furthermore, there is a pthreads "standard"
(not yet approved) POSIX 1003.4a.
