why not? if the libraries are used in a threaded environment they need to
be thread safe. so if you have just a single important threaded application
your libraries will have to support it. you can build layers around
non-thread-safe libs but this is a lot of work and isnt possible in every
case.

it's not about a specific thread model. but it should get more attention
and should be tought of when designing.
