Some glut or glui functions are useful. Can I use these functions with GLFW and still safe within one windowed threaded mode?

Probably not. Which functions do you want to use? GLU functions should be fine, but I’m guessing that glutInit() and glfwInit() will step on each other’s toes. Give it a try and see what happens…

GLU is OK.
GLUI isn’t (afaik it is very tightly coupled to GLUT - I wanted to port it to GLFW once, but quickly gave it up).
Some GLUT functions are OK I think, namely the ones that do not rely on a GLUT context (e.g. primitive rendering functions). I guess this has more to do with each individual GLUT implementation than the actual GLUT spec - see the GLUT source.
