I think it would be good, yes.

It does, at least as of its latest official release 2.0.11.

Yes.  (It is not a problem for Guile, since Guile built with threads

Guile on Windows is to build it without threads.)  Suggestions for
fixing that are welcome.  Maybe just use the '__thread' qualifier for
that variable?
