I'm actually doing this. Essentially, I have a 'thread class' that has a 
run() method that is a thread entry point, but the ctor/dtor execute in 
the 'parent' thread.

Is it safe to create and set up, and tear down, my 0MQ socket in the 
ctor/dtor (i.e. in thread A, and poll/recv/etc. in thread B)? Is there 
something I should be doing to make it safe?

The class does guarantee that ctor/run()/dtor will never execute in 
parallel.
