I think there is a mis-communication here. They are thread 'safe', but
if called, they block out all other 'threads' from running, so using
kqueue doesn't allow for multiple threads to run 'concurrently'.
In other words, a wrapper needs to be written so it can work in a
'threaded' environment effeciently.
