threading support == Eina_Lock is really a mutex

so, suppose that eina has not the thead support enabled and you enable the 
thread safety in ecore. You'll have a beautiful 'yes' in ecore's configure 
output for the thread safety in the main loop, while there will be no 
thrad safety at all...

So my remark was more a question : should we check if eina has threads 
enabled or not in ecore's configure.ac ?
