The expect package is not working with thread. Could we have an update to support it OR information on the work that would be required to make it thread safe.

$tclsh
% info patchlevel
8.6.12
% package require Expect
5.45.4
% package require Thread
2.8.7
% set tid [thread::create]
tid0xf68d5b40
% thread::send -async $tid {package require Expect}
% Segmentation fault (core dumped)
