<h3>Using collators in multi-threaded environment</h3>
<p>Instances of Collator class are meant to be used on per thread basis. Although it is
possible to have multiple threads access one Collator there is no guarante that such a
construct will work, especially if number of threads grows over 10. There are no
limitations on number of threads if each thread creates its own separate instance of
Collator class.</p>
<p>Test results have shown that case with 50 threads accessing 1 collator fails with a
crash after 20 threads are reached. However, a test with 50 threads creating separate
instances works well.</p>
<h3>Implementations</h3>
<p>On Win32 platforms, a reentrant mutex is most naturally implemented on top of a
