The work done locally was mainly for memory usage reasons.  IIRC, the
upstream bindings pull all of the results into memory at once, whereas
our locally modified ones do so only as needed.  I don't think
threading/locking was ever an issue -- you might be confusing it with
the fact that we couldn't use early sqlite 3.x versions because of
broken policy in the library to that effect.

I'm not sure what the memory side effects of the newer upstream bindings are.
