Just looked at the Cygwin source, and it looks like they do.
pthread::create in src/winsup/cygwin/thread.cc calls native Windows 
::CreateThread
and stores the returned HANDLE in win32_obj_id (a member of the pthread 
class).
This is then accessible as (*thread)->win32_obj_id from the pthread_t 
*thread pointer.
So that looks sufficient ... if Wine can use ptherads...
