First a disclaimer - I don't use CLISP.

A quick search of the web turned up this:

<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8528766/does-clisp-support-thread>

So if you pull the source from setup*.exe for the package and fit the
"--with-threads" switch into whatever configury it uses, that should do it.
Of course, you need all the dependent development package libraries
and development tools too.  If the sound of all this doesn't sap your
confidence, go for it.
