Disable multithreading?   NOOOOOOOO !!!

It will be disabled only very temporarily I assume?
I dont really care about w32 but by disabling the multithreading you
just killed the tap system on gtk2.

yes, gtk1 can do tap without multithreading, but it is a sucky solution and
i expect problems if people use tap extensions while captureing a busy
network.


This is why low prio threads are important.
