It is not that simple. The heap manager cannot handle situations where threads have been started by code that is not aware of the FPC threading mechanisms - such as apache. I have done some changes for this, but they are not sufficient. PThreads has no mechanisms for dealing with this situation. Windows does (using the DLL_THREAD_ATTACH message).
