Language level support for threads will lead to code that is much easier to 
get right.

The example I'm familiar with is being able to mark a subroutine as expecting 
the caller to hold the lock.  If you want to call it from outside the module, 
you need a wrapper that gets the lock, then calls the routine.  It's another 
level of type checking.
