We should fix this.  We can probably do it in 2.0.  Interested in
sending a patch?

Currently this stuff is in C, unfortunately.  Perhaps it should move to
Scheme at some point, but if you just wanted to add an  or
 superclass, see goops.c.  Look for the  stuff
and follow the patterns.

Hi!

Actually 1.8 has a serious problem when it comes to multi-threading:
memoization, which modifies the source code tree structure, is not
thread-safe.

I’m not sure if this could explain your deadlock, but it could
potentially lead to unexpected behavior.

Thanks,
