Threads simply don't work here, because the whole streamer infrastructure 
(or anything else in GCC for that matter) isn't thread safe (you'd have to 
have multiple streamer objects, multiple SCC finder objects, and you'd 
have to audit everything for not using any other shared resources).  
Fork-fire-forget is really a much simpler choice here IMO; no worries 
about shared resources, less debug hassle.


Ciao,
Michael.
