   I work on a library that leverages fontbox for reading fonts.   The 3.x 
release introduced a change that breaks my rendering tests.  I finally had a 
chance to dig a little deeper as to what might have changed between  2.x and 
3.x as I'd like to migrate to 3.x.  I believe 
[PDFBOX-5143](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-5143) (reuse 
Type2CharStringParser instead of recreating it for every char) may have 
introduced the issue I'm seeing.  
   
   The issue is relate to how I call fontbox api from multiple threads, or to 
say, make render calls to the same font from multiple threads.  The PR shows a 
very simplistic work around to the problem that gets things rendering correct 
in my test suite.  
   
   Could you let me know if you'd entertain some type of synchronization to 
make the calls more or less thread safe?   If so, I can build out a more robust 
solution with supporting tests.
