libpq thread safety

Hi,

I've searched through libpq and looked for global or static variables as
indicators of non-threadsafe code. I found:
- Win32 and BeOS: there is a global "ioctlsocket_ret variable, but it
seems to be a dummy variable that is always discarded.
- pg_krb4_init(): Are the kerberos libraries thread safe? Additionally,
setting init_done is racy.
- pg_krb4_authname(): uses a static buffer.
- kerberos 5: Is the library thread safe? the initialization could run
twice, I'm not sure if that's intentional.
- pg_krb4_authname(): relies on the global variable pg_krb5_name.
- PQoidStatus: uses a static buffer.
- libpq_gettext: setting already_bound is racy.
- openssl: According to
http://www.openssl.org/docs/crypto/threads.html
libpq must register locking callbacks within openssl, otherwise there
will be random corruptions. Additionally the SSL_context initialization
is not properly synchronized, and SSLerrmessage relies on a static buffer.

PQoidStatus is already documented as not thread safe, but what about
OpenSSL and kerberos? It seems openssl needs support with callbacks, and
according to google searches MIT kerberos 5 is not thread safe, and
libpq must use mutexes to prevent concurrent calls into the kerberos
library.
