[M3devel] RC merge

[Tony Hosking]

Sorry, it looks like my commit failed last night because of need to  
merge with your ThreadUnsafe stuff.

FYI, we really should think about making ThreadF UNSAFE since anyone  
invoking on it is exposed to dangerous parts of the run-time system.   
Is there any need for it really to be safe?
