Didn't I say so?
I just mentioned, that there is work going on in the standards committee 
to change this. I never maintained that the current standard does say 
anything about threading.

I also tried to convince the original poster, if he needs to use the 
shown code, he should be aware that it's usage isn't covered by the 
standard at all.
