Quoting MenTaLguY <mental@...3...>:
There are some secondary concerns with libraries as well; for example libgc does not work well with threads that were not created via its thread wrappers. The upcoming version of libgc (7.2?) will have some additional thread registration functions which can be used to address that issue, but it's not released yet and even once it is it'll be a while before it hits distributions.
Yes, libraries might give us some unexpected problems. Just in adding the newer tablet support I happened to run across all sorts of things that are in the gtk or gdk headers that appear to be disabled for thread-safe builds.
(I'm hoping that is just legacy defines... but it may be a lurking problem)
