Michael-
I seem to recall something about LNP not being completely thread
safe. However, there is no documentation on that at all. Stig Neilsson (if
he is around) may be a good person to ask, since he has studied the
threading model in detail, and would probably know where LNP may or may
not override things that it shouldn't.
