It bugged Lee enough that he went and wrote a patch for it. It bugged me 
enough that I couldn't use it on our choice of platform (older Linux) that I 
did some little fixes for that. I worked on what I needed.

If you need a justification for ECPG threading support: people porting from 
Sybase/Informix/Oracle would probably expect ECPG to support threads, and 
will get a nasty surprise when their ported application abruptly dies. I 
expected it to "just work" and was unpleasantly surprised when it didn't.
