Sounds reasonable.

It's a utility to find the channel's rendering context for a pointer
event, e.g., to do picking.

Since the channel data changes constantly, the window stores all
channel render context from the last frame. Since this vector is
updated from the pipe thread, it is not thread-safe to access from
another thread. In the old AGL days it used to have a lock around,
which is not the proper solution.

Right now you don't need it, and I'll keep it in mind to find a better solution.

A stack trace would help...



Cheers,
