pthread_create: Technically yes you could, but when using glib/gtk+, 
I'd recommend using the GThread api for threading - most importantly IMO
is that you dont mix GThread/pthread apis together.

As for connect/accept, there is no such api in glib to help you there,
so you should go ahead and use the posix api for that, you can look
into GIOChannel and GIOWatch that will help you integrate file
desctriptor events into your main loop.
