Not, well, not at least on intention but maybe is the XPCOM which is
calling pascal code from a different thread :-? XPCOM tells me across
the documentation to call most of its functions from the main thread,
but maybe the callback is happening from a different one :-?

It doesn't matter that it's called from a different thread, as long as this different thread is also created via the FPC RTL.

If that's the case is any kind of workaround ?

No, it cannot be worked around (other than adding functions to the FPC rtl that you can call *once* from externally created threads to initialise and finalise the FPC thread support for that specific thread, but that has not yet been done).
