How about helping me make libsmbclient thread-safe ? :-). We need
to do this in such a way that we perturb the code as little as
possible for the non-threaded uses (e.g. just linking in pthreads
primitives won't work). More like the way openssl implements
threading.

Sound low-level and hard enough for you ? :-).
