Ok, so it does matter. Are you locking your complex number
before modifying it?
Just to generalize the issue, so that I know, realy, what we are talking
about,
I think they are going on about a very fundamental CS issue: mutable
objects are not thread-safe. If threads are not an issue, then this
has all been hot air, but it came up, IIRC, because the discussion
mentioned the mutable vs. immutable issue, and this always leads one
to concurrency nowadays,

My response to something Grégoire sent me this off-list is below. My
off-list response to him bounced. I see no reason why he would mind me
posted it up so I take the liberty to do so. Apologies if Grégoire feels
otherwise. Not something I generally like to do, but see no reason in this
case
