While my machine was compiling AMP components, I thought about this a little
bit. It seems weird that the implementation of a language intended to provide
backend functionality for web servers isn't thread safe. Apache and other web
server software must be threaded operationally towards infinity. How do they
deal with using a non-thread safe library? Each time a thread executes PHP code
does it have to grab a lock that protects the whole PHP library?
