Looking at rtl/inc/heap.inc from 2.4.0 it seems that the locking is

is that true ?
Yes.
To adapt my ThreadManager for 2.4.0 I think I have to:
- remove the SetMemoryMutexManager() call
- implement the *CriticalSection() calls in my XenoThreadManager
Has someone any hints, comments or concerns about the approach ?
It sounds perfectly fine to me. You should also experience much better
performance with the new heap manager, as the critical section is
seldom used in normal operation. If you want a program in which this
scenario is stress tested, you can use http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/fpc/trunk/tests/test/theapthread.pp
