No, glpk is not thread safe.

Thread safety (unlike re-enterability) requires locking/unlocking
program objects used by concurrent threads. Since the standard C does
not provide such a feature, there are no plans in this direction.
I'm just wondering how you would use glpk if it were thread safe?
Thanks.
