I understand that statics are used by PVM, and that it is not thread
safe.

Does it become thread safe if all PVM calls are gated by a mutex - or
are there other difficulties?

Is tpvm compatible with pvm3.4? (I have yet to check it out)

I assume different threads in the same task (process) will inevitably
share the same tid?
