BinHTTPURLInputStream initialisation not thread safe

           Summary: BinHTTPURLInputStream initialisation not thread safe
           Product: Xerces-C++
           Version: 1.5.1
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: Utilities
        AssignedTo: xerces-c-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: mark@npsl.co.uk


Uses a flag `fInitialised' to see if the Winsock DLL has been loaded.  This flag is used without mutex protection, which under circumstances where multiple calls are in progress causes failure, usually by one of the calls accessing the uninitialised function pointers.

Patch supplied, patch is against current CVS version + patch for bug #4121 (BinHTTPUrlInputStream  needds to read entire HTTP header).
