SCO's threading support in a beta release is about number 2000 on my
list of priorities right now. It will work in final --- that's all I
can promise. If that isn't good enough, find someone else who wants to
do the work for you.

I am avoiding fixing the SCO port because it would ugilify the other
ports --- we need to discuss that, not ram in a fix just to get it
working on one platform --- that is quality.
