I think the main language to lack threads is regular C/C++, as they try
to keep it platform-independant and threads tend to be specific to the
OS. There's no reason it couldn't implement it of course, they're just
arses and like keeping C annoyingly basic. It's not too hard to use
Boost, or SDL, or anything else with cross-platform threads.
