BTW, I don't think Cocoa is re-entrant safe either. Can someone cofirm? If so, calling -display in a child thread while a window is being resized will likely cause problems.

"Cocoa" is probably the wrong term to use in the question, because that
contains both Foundation and AppKit. AppKit's nature makes it less
amenable to threadsafety, etc (same as Swing). Foundation is more
thread-friendly.

It looks like you're asking about AppKit, not Foundation. I'm afraid
I don't know the answer.
