Good explanation guys....

So, what is preferred then if it is "recommended" to not use this.  I'm
parsing a CSV string.  Being that there is even an accronym CSV, it is
pretty common and I'd prefer not to write my own parser if possible.

I am using it in a multithreaded program and I do seem to have some bugs of
unknown origin.  I don't know if this is what is causing it, but I am
interested in getting to a rock-solid program.
