i didn't receive Teemu patches due to 
e-mail problem. Can you send in to me in
private mail? Or will it be in next

The only objection i have right now is
that --enable-threads will have two
separate meanings in configure.

Maybe better have separate options - one
for MT safe EH and another for
ObjC runtime ?
