-This library is to be used by multithreaded programs that need to access
-the kauth and auth library interfaces. The primary method used to obtain
-thread safety in these libraries is to lock/unlock a recursive global
-mutex at the entry point of every public function in the library.
-
-However, not all public functions are made thread safe since not all
-functions are needed by the NT admin work. In particular, there are
-many public functions that make up decendants of the functions
-we wish to use that weren't modified, since these functions will be
-protected by the locking at a higher level function.
-
-To prevent people from using non-thread safe functions, platform
-specific methods are used to limit the functions exported by the
-library (using def files under NT and mapfiles under Solaris). For
-most non-exported functions, it should be trivial to make the
-transformation to thread safe by simply locking/ unlocking the
-global mutex at the beginning/end of the function.
