thaw/freeze was used to protect a critical section of the code if the
_draw() and also the _reset() was called at the same time. so that the
linked list of tap listners would not change dangerously from
underneath someone walking the list.

This can no longer happen since we are not using pthreads any more.
(pthreads performed very poorly when it was used).
