The JSR is pretty terse when it comes to defining threading, but there
is a de-facto requirement which is obvious if one imagines use-cases
beyond the trivial. It must support multithreaded access to the
ScriptContext.

Here's a fact: without my patch, Jython breaks where are other JSR-223
implementations do not. Prudence now ships with my patched version:

I didn't have time to work on this beyond my quick band aid. Nicholas,
what do you say? Do you want to take some time to work on this, or
should I try to slog through?

I tried, but got a bit frustrated as Jython SVN changed before my eyes
and broke my code... It seems this kind of work needs to be better
coordinated with the team. Also, there must be a multithreaded unit test
for this model, to make sure it doesn't break!
