The unixsim application will only work without alteration on a unix
operating system.  The thread is only created if the architecture
dependent code that you've written supports multiple threads.  If not, it
all still works, but you have to call the tcp timers manually.

Yes, they are dependent on unix.  You may find that your operating system
is similar enough that they provide a good template, and you can modify
them slightly to create a different set for your OS.

Don't know.  I've only looked at the unix code.
