If threads are not quite make-able, then I think we would at least need 
thread-safety. With the reduction in C code for the interpreter, I think 
this might be more possible. Even if threads are not built-in, there are 
still other libraries we can use for threads. So, what is certainly 
necessary is thread-safety, which is the least of what's needed.
