ChorusOS (aka Jaluna-1) has both: Posix, threads...; memory protection and fork() are optional.
If only it had an (involved) community.

Last time I looked at the state of ChorusOS (admittedly a few years back when it was still closed-source and owned by Sun), POSIX was still kind of add-on to the system (and with surprising omissions). To get access to better performance and all features of the system, you had to use the native non-POSIX API. On the other hand, ChorusOS is modular and you can configure variants for both large and small applications, like use or omit memory management as needed.uClinux as an Embedded OS on a DSP (Linux Journal)
