It seems strange, but I can't find a list of operating systems which
support / don't support threading in Python. Can anyone point me in
the right direction?
Thanks,

Here is the list (from Python documentation of thread module):
=============== =============== =============== =====
7.4 thread -- Multiple threads of control
This module provides low-level primitives for working with multiple
threads (a.k.a. light-weight processes or tasks) -- multiple threads
of control sharing their global data space. For synchronization ,
simple locks (a.k.a. mutexes or binary semaphores) are provided.
The module is optional. It is supported on Windows, Linux, SGI IRIX,
Solaris 2.x, as well as on systems that have a POSIX thread (a.k.a.
``pthread'') implementation. For systems lacking the thread module,
the dummy_thread module is available. It duplicates this module's
interface and can be used as a drop-in replacement.
