Well, wouldn't surprise me to find more related multi-threading issues. Not sure how long OSG itself supports it, but I guess it wasn't a major priority at the time when FG was adapted to OSG. And I'm sure more fixes will be necessary to safely support it. The particular source lines also have an "//OSGFIXME" comment - another hint that work was left behind. Try replacing the calls to SGIsOpenGLExtensionSupported - they provide constant information anyway. It'd be enough to check version/capabilities once during init and then use constant data at run-time. Try if that helps.
