A thing to do after the release might be to synchronize with the
thread safe malloc in glibc.

What do we do before the release?  Possible options would be:

  1) Use the system malloc library (and abandon emacs_blocked_*) if
     HAVE_GTK_AND_PTHREAD.
  2) Modify src/gmalloc.c to make it thread safe.

I just tried the latter, but I can't test it myself.

I've been running this patch for a week now, and had no ill effects.
