That doesn't seem to have anything about threads. You need MiNT /
pre-emptive multitasking for threads so it's kind of understandable...
I was mainly asking whether there's MiNT (and MiNTLib) specific information
about its threads implementation (besides the old stuff on my ancient web
page).

That at least links & shows the existing documentation coming with MiNT
sources:
http://freemint.de/docs/mint.index.html
The Sparemint "general information" here:
http://sparemint.org/sparemint/info.html
Is somewhat sparse compared to that. :-)
