[Libssh] Greetings

[Chris Backas]

We use libssh in a pretty heavily threaded environment, but I treat  
the API itself as not-thread-safe with regards to a particular  
connection. So, I have a background thread that reads/writes/monitors  
the connection and is the only thing which can call libssh APIs, and  
then I communicate with this thread from other threads in order to  
protect it.

However, we also routinely have multiple connections going on, so  
there can be many of these background libssh monitor threads going on  
at once in our application.   This has proven quite reliable.

Hope that helps,
Chris Backas
