It's not a bad idea, except maybe for performance reasons. As long as
you don't make Win32 calls from the pthread-created thread things
should work fine.
A better way would be to override pthread_create to create a proper
Win32 thread; we already do that for kthreads support so it shouldn't
be too hard to do the same thing for pthreads.
