Older versions of glib had optional threading support, so you needed
to call g_thread_init() yourself.

Newer versions (in the last 12 months or so? can't remember, but about
that) have made thread support required and the threading system is
now inited for you as part of glib startup.

It's harmless to call g_thread_init() more than once.
