The GC is deeply interacting with the the rest of the compiler. I think you will spend a lot of time on this task. I would recommend you trying OC4MC, which is probably what you are looking for: http://www.algo-prog.info/ocmc/web/ They show quite interesting results using Thread at the last OCaml Meeting, though they are still some bugs (almost linear speed-up with multicore).
