Yes. We only support cooperative threads right now and thread
switches can only occur during calls to some specific functions like
'yield', 'lock-mutex', ' wait-condition-variable', etc. You also need
to call SCM_TICK occasionally in long runnning computations to allow
other threads to run. However, there is no way to prevent 'yield' or
SCM_TICK from switching during critical sections. You have to use
mutex for this.
