Subject: FastCGI and threads

Somewhat related to the earlier post:

Some time ago another ruby user tried UNSUCCESSFULLY the following code:

FCGI.each do |fcgi|
  Thread.new(fcgi) { |f|
      f.out.print "Content-type:  text/html\r\n\r\n"
      f.out.print f.out.type, "<br>\n"
      ...
   }
end

matz replied:

fcgi is not thread-safe.  Unlike other IO facilities, it does not try to
avoid IO blocking.  I'll make fcgi thread-safe soon (or I hope someone
voluneer to update it).

Is fcgi thread safe now ? Can code like this work with fcgi?

thanks in advance,
