Well, simply because Mac OS X is based on UNIX, it can't be assumed that the OS is multithreaded. Multithreading is a concept that came around way after the first UNIX OSes were developed.

And this actually manifested itself in earlier versions of the Linux kernel that simulated threads by actually launching a whole process in place of a thread, to take advantage of the process scheduler. Linux was firmly based on old UNIX code, I believe the implementation was called Minix.
