Because it also eliminates the locking in the threaded mpm.
And, I wanted to see if I could squeeze some extra performance
out of it and make it a bit more readable.  I don't know if
I succeeded in the latter.  Or the performance for that matter :)

Btw, why couldn't we use pools in brigades again?
