_______________________________________________________
Details:
A quick scan through the Foundation sources show several thread-unsafe system
calls being used. These should be replaced with thread-safe alternatives (for
example, inet_ntop instead of inet_ntoa), or protected by locks if no
thread-safe alternative is available.
The ones I noticed include (with thread-safe alternative if known):
inet_ntoa (inet_ntop)
strerror (strerror_r)
gethostbyaddr
getgrgid
getpwuid
getpwnam
getgrnam
nl_langinfo
localeconv
