Hi,
http://bugs.debian.org/596291 links to the correct commit for a fix, although it is
nothing to do with threading; the bug is that a read() on a FD comes back with zero bytes
(its an EOF).
The following fixes the bug:
https://github.com/OfflineIMAP/offlineimap/commit/b94bf792585a9297851bdb965c4bbd6bdadeeb42
It does not apply cleanly to the Debian squeeze version, but I have been running for some
time the attached patch based on it.
Cheers
