If you really need to do this right now, then probably the best thing you
can do on a MacOS machine is to use Frontier rather than MacPerl. Frontier
is already threaded.
I haven't kept up with Frontier developments in a while, but it was being
oriented toward Web programming last I looked, so you may find just what
you're looking for already available.

Alternatively, there's MkLinux or LinuxPPC, but as Chris and I have both
discovered, the new threaded Perl, 5.004_63, doesn't quite work right.
(The "poor man's'' threading of fork/exec works just fine, of course)
