And if anyone else is interested, I've written a decent-sized threaded 
server application in the form of Bonkle...  I'd like to clean up the manner 
the locking is done in, but I paid lots of care to not have races and to do 
everything efficiently.  See:
	http://green.bikeshed.org/~green/bonkle-011.tar.gz

BTW, I have half of a client written and the server only needs a bit more, 
like "operator" status and whatnot, so if anyone wants to help me finish it 
;)
