Does anyone actually use the Delphi Zip DLLs in a
multithreaded program?

I've been researching this and according to several 
web sites there are some reliability problems with
TLSAlloc (allocates local storage for threads). One
site said it might work 64 times in a row, and fail 
on the 65th try.

I'm considering the idea of releasing only non-threaded
DLLs, but perhaps making the threaded DLLs available
only on a special request basis.

Please tell me what you think!

Eric
