Putting the threading checks in the gpaui code where there are no
obvious threads is certainly simple, but seems out of place.  I'd
rather they be down in the only threaded backend
    libgnomeprint/libgnomeprint/modules/cups/gnome-print-cups.c
which keeps knowledge of threads local.

Blah I've had something similar sitting in my tree for a while, and
forgot to commit.
