   There’s some possibility of it working on macOS as all Unixes have more in common than they do with Win32. I haven’t seen a definitive statement on macOS multithreaded Pango like the one about Win32 from the main Pango developer Behdad Esfahbod.

   The technique used for multi-threading Pango is to use thread-local resources and avoid locking. macOS and Linux share more threading infrastructure (like pthreads) so macOS may be able to reuse the Linux work unless it uses Linux-specific APIs. OTOH, macOS GTK seems to get even less attention than Win32 GTK.
