This sounds promising.  As far as threading changes, there was the
issue of thread cleanup routine not being called.  Other than that
and the ref counting changes that you mentioned, I thinks that's it.
If I get a chance this weekend, I'll spend some time looking at the
thread cleanup issue.

This patch looks great. I touched up a couple of little things
and checked it in (see the ChangeLog for the gory details).

I ran the tests again, and it looks like everything is working
just great. I can also run some multi-threaded tests that
did not work in the past.

Are there any remaining issues we need to look at before
merging this branch back into the HEAD? We can't fix
the ref count problem right now, we need to get this
all merged back into the HEAD and then we can look
at overhauling ref counting, perhaps on another branch.
