I take from your statement that it must be a heart-breaking view to watch Nancy Kerrigan (HTF is Nancy Kerrigan) cry.
I agree that the current MT code in osd is sub-optimal. The proper way would be that the mame-core would be executed in it's own thread and deliver frames to the main-thread via some queue. That would eliminate all the issues we currently have with MT. It's really not the MT code, it's the design. I could easily live without MT if we would have proper support for "background" vsync wait. That's the whole reason I am sticking to MT.
