Hi Scott,

At the present time EMC does not support
threading as you probably already knew.

AHHA does have threading in their Artisan
system if you order the option on the
interface board.

See: http://www.ahha.com/

Also, TurboCNC has begun to have some support
for threading. It is still only using one
index pulse per spindle revolution for now
but impovements are expected. TurboCNC runs
steppers via the printer port.
