And also makes it threadsafe? If a shared PMC is frozen simultaneously by
two threads under Dan's scheme, will the right thing happen? I can't help
being worried about interactions between any two operations which use
flags on the PMCs to makr their progress (such as freezing and DOD, or
two freezes).
Bear in mind that I have never used threads and can't remember how they work
in parrot, so this may be an irrelevant question.
