If I have a ublas matrix object, is it thread safe w.r.t. matvec operations?  In other words:

typedef boost::numeric::ublas::compressed_matrix< double, boost::numeric::ublas::row_major > MatType;

MatType mat;  // both threads use the same matrix object.
VecType a1, b1, a2, b2;

// ... assemble matrix and vectors ...
//  ...

// thread 1 code:
axpy_prod( mat, a1, b1, true );

// thread2 code:
axpy_prod( mat, a2, b2, true );

Should this be thread safe?  My observation is that it is NOT.  I am getting memory corruption somewhere.  Interestingly, this same approach works fine with a different linear algebra package that I have used.  So I suspect that ublas is keeping some internal data in the matrix object that is being altered by application of axpy_prod?

Also, it seems that axpy_prod is no longer included in the boost documentation (html) - is that function being deprecated in favor of the prod(...) functions?
