Hi J-S, I bet that historically osgshadow had SingleThreading initialized for the reason Robert mentioned. But notice that it was also possible to change it by command arguments.
Then osgViewer got the argument parser and started to initilize threading model. But this functionality was being overwirtten by explicit SingleThreading setting left from earlier times. And ThreadingHandler was developed later thats why it was not added to osgshadow example. Sure, I might be wrong. Robert can tell us about passed development milestones or svn history could shed some light on this problem.. But I doubt that continuing this disucssion would be productive. Whatever was the flow of changes we both agree we should try to make it work with ThreadingHandler and other ThreadingModes.
