The ref counting for rpm objects needs to become atomic to avoid Heisenbug's when attempting use of rpm objects in multithreaded environments.
Yes the window doing increment/decrement is quite tiny, but is still not correct.
There are of course other issues serializing RW access to object internals if/when needed.
