If you say, 'You don't need it", of what locking and where do you talk about?
The Go code can be relative lock free, but why can I get away with not telling
OpenSSL (or NSS) that it is going to get called from threaded code?

This would be the point to "tell OpenSSL/NSS that it is going to get called from
threaded code", No?

You may be right, but I think you are talking about stuff one layer higher than
I am.
