I see that. PDL has that as an experimental feature on any ufunc (in
fact on any function that has a signature). It is not yet happening
under the hood though. You need to explicitly ask PDL to do it by
specifying the number of threads:

  $a->add_threading_magic(0,10);
  $a++; # in ten (possibly concurrent) threads

Just a POP at this stage.
