Do detailed design & documentation on STM-based threading system.

STM is Software Transactional Memory.  It's wicked cool.  Really.
Google it.  You'll be glad you did.

BTW, if you're wondering how this can work efficiently in Parrot:
Remember that threading contention only applies to those variables
