Ehh... not realy. Multithreading means locking, futexes, and other pains. It
also means almost rewriting master, etc.  It means VERY painful debugging.

Modern design just means high-performance event dispatching.  Cyrus can
already do pre-fork, so it just needs an update on the connection handling,
you don't need to go multithread.

Besides, fork()-based designs are much more resilient.
