No objections from interfaces, can this be applied?

Subject: quick ECPG doco change

Hi, this doco patch is a quick one to add explicit mention of the need for
the AT clause in threaded ECPG applications. Does this sound okay?
Bruce, yes, I do intend to contribute more than this, but at least this will
stop some confusion in the meantime.
Regards, Philip Yarra.

This option is particularly suitable if the application needs to
use several connections in mixed order.

+ If your application uses multiple threads of execution, they cannot
share a
+ connection concurrently. You must either explicitly control access to
the connection
+ (using mutexes) or use a connection for each thread. If each thread
uses its own connection,
+ you will need to use the AT clause to specify which connection the
thread will use.
