Was the intent that the openIB verbs be "thread safe" or was the intend
that if thread safety was required it be implemented in the layers above
the
verbs.  If there was a discussion on verb thread safety can somebody please
point me to it?  Since the verbs are a pretty low level access to IB
I would think you would leave thread safety to the layer above but it don't
know what to assume.
