 Replying to [comment:1 anonymous]:
 > g_count is not protected against race conditions. You should use an
 atomic integer or use a mutext to protect g_count.

 it's true, what you say - the same goes for g_started. i left it this way
 intentionally since i work on x86 where ++x on integer is atomic any way
 and i didn't want to complicate example code any more.
