There have been a few discussions on this topic recently. Search the forums to find them. Basically, it is possible to write a multithreaded OpenGL app, as long as you keep all of the OpenGL calls to a single thread.
ReactOS - an Open-source operating system compatible with Windows NT apps and drivers
I just wanna clarify something.

You don''t create threads in OpenGL, you use Win32 CreateThread or beginthreadex (if you''re using Windows) or whatever else if you''re not.

Check MSDN for functions.
