Is that really true? Are node attach and detach operations atomic in
their tree modifications? I don't think I would feel happy traversing
a tree whilst another thread was modifying it.
Nah. I just meant the basic operations. You can't safely modify the same
tree from different threads without manual sync.
Sorry for the confusion.
(I'd still say the *library* is thread safe, in that all global state of
the library is threading safe. I guess it depends what one means by
"thread safe".)
