Many could run concurrently with a threaded MPM. The correct place to ensure calling library init and cleanuo functons more than once doesn't hurt is in the library, and if Tcl doesn't do that, you might want to report a bug. Failing that, you could create wrapper functions which keep track of state, whether as binary on/off or by reference counting. Then fix both modules to call those in place of the problematic ones. You could even create another mini-module (say, mod_tcl_lib) to do global initialisation and cleanup, make it a prerequisite for the others, then strip those functions altogether from the 'real' Tcl modules. -- Nick Kew
