And even better, to declare thread #2 being 'The Main Thread', with thread #1 becoming a secondary one? Basically, I need an API call like 'make the calling thread become the Main One'. Undocumented wizardry and Objective C is fine, as long as it works on OS X 10.5 as well.

Mac OS X Manual Page For pthread (3) PTHREAD (3) BSD Library Functions Manual PTHREAD (3) NAME pthread - POSIX thread functions SYNOPSIS #include DESCRIPTION POSIX threads are a set of functions that support applications with requirements for multiple flows of control, called threads, within a process. Mac OS 8 and 9 were multithreading in many tasks, but the application switching was not. Mac OS X offers multithreading at the application level. To see the extent of the threading, your Activity Viewer/Monitor utility (it was renamed with a certain version of Mac OS X) will show you all the separate tasks.
