This is actually not that big of a problem. It was a god send when thread
safety was added for most of the global stuff and thread support made
default during the build. As the stuff i work on needs to support multiple
OS and web servers, I typically use IIS and isapi to test the threading
issues (since IIS isnt consistant with its startup and shutdown thread it
makes it a good worst case scenario I find).

On that note, a big kudos to all those who worked on the thread support - it
sure made my life a hell of a lot easier :)
