make g2c threadsafe #365

Thread safety is something all the cool kids are doing.

User programs may well wish to use multithreading, and if g2c is threadsafe they can do so.

I think it will be best to add thread safety soon. Then as new features are added, they can be made threadsafe and tests can be written to ensure it.

I am looking at the pthreads library. It's a POSIX library and is available on all platforms, including Windows. (Windows will probably cause some problems though - it usually does.)
