 * A multi-threaded example that uses pthreads and fetches 4 remote files at
 * once over HTTPS. The lock callbacks and stuff assume OpenSSL or GnuTLS
 * (libgcrypt) so far.
 *
 * OpenSSL docs for this:
 *   http://www.openssl.org/docs/crypto/threads.html
 * gcrypt docs for this:
 *   http://gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gcrypt/Multi_002dThreading.html
