    5.6.1 did support threads, provided it was compiled with threads support. But they were buggy way back then, though the simple use above that probably won't matter much.

    But why are you still using 5.6.1? That's like still using a 386 cpu, the Netscape browser or rushing home to watch Friends re-runs.
