To be pedantic, I said it's safe (by default) when called from
multiple threads, as long as something else is doing the
synchronisation to ensure only one thread is active in the Mockery at
a time. There are APIs (Swing, for example) for which even this is
not the case: you are only allowed to use objects on the same thread
that created them because of hidden dependencies stored in
thread-local storage. Nasty!
