I'm not intending to get too involved in this question, I don't know enough about threading beyond it's not as simple as it looks :) I do want to just point out that for our purposes, threading can never replace a good fork, particularly when it comes to most of the actions performed by <stage>, such as setting up chroots and modifying process UID & GID.
