SQLite library.

Thanks,

Given your experience I think you've answered the question: Yes. But it would be good if we could detect this at build time (is there a way to do that?) and prevent the module from being built against the sqlite3 library compiled in this unusual mode. Threading support is required in order to be a valid CPython platform, so all libraries used should be aware of that.
