<para id="strict">All functions listed here are thread-agnostic and only a single specific thread may operate on a

|
given object during its entire lifetime. It's safe to allocate multiple independent objects and use each from a
|
|
specific thread in parallel. However, it's not safe to allocate such an object in one thread, and operate or free it
|
|
from any other, even if locking is used to ensure these threads don't operate on it at the very same time.</para>

<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>getenv</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
