Non thread safe primitives

Hi,

I've found some messages on the mailing list that uClibc is not thread safe
http://www.uclinux.org/pub/uClinux/archive/4087.html (2001)
But from here
http://uclibc.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/trunk/uClibc/docs/threads.txt?rev=9721&view=markup
(2005)
it seems at least the C standard library (I/O, malloc, errno, math,
etc) part is fully thread safe, and for the primitives that aren't, a
reentrant counterpart is provided. Am i wrong on this?

So what's uClibc current status then (in almost 2007)?

Thanks in advance.
