Well its has been shipping in different forms in many games on Mac
and windows for some years now.

There are private and public OSS versions of the lib.

Apple for instance ships one with the last few versions of the OS.

There have been complaints that version is not thread safe.

If you use a OSS version you are free to fix any bugs that show up.
