[assuming that you are running under the Linux]

After g_thread_create() the clone() will be called inside the libs
(glib->gthread->pthread->glibc->kernel). fork() is just the shorter
way (glibc->kernel).
The new thread will be scheduled like your fork'ed process.
If your forked process solves your problem, g_thread* stuff will
solve it too.
Can you post the code example (in case its not too big) ?
