If a large fraction of existing and prospective users were doing that,
we'd be thinking about whether they were gone forever or could be
supported by PETSc.  Good libraries make minimal assumptions about the
environment they are run in.  Threads may not provide any value to us,
but users make decisions based on lots of concerns that may or may not
include what is best for PETSc.
