You must call g_thread_init() before executing any other GLib functions
in a threaded GLib program. After that, GLib is completely thread safe
(all global data is automatically locked). But individual data structure
instances are not automatically locked for performance reasons. So e.g.
you must coordinate accesses to the same #GHashTable from multiple threads.
