Arthur Bergman has started ex::threads::safecwd, but I'm not sure in 
what state the development of this module is. I remember he was asking 
for somebody to take over it, since he had too many p5p things to do. 
You can see the logic of this module in this article, second page:
http://www.perl.com/pub/a/2002/06/11/threads.html?page=2
If you have the tuits to finishing it up, feel free to contact Arthur 
and offer help.

As for SafeThread I haven't heard of this module in the perl land.
