Again, specify what you mean by "thread" and I'll give you an answer.
Unless I'm missing something in your question, the answer is always
"no," however.
OK. What I mean is that I have multiple Posix threads created with
pthread_create (), and those threads are likely to perform (in parallel) calls
to `Eval' on scheme procedure objects (those calls are made from C). My
question was to know if it's safe or ot in the case where no global object is
involved.
