Embedded thread-enabled Tcl and packages

Hello out there,
I am embedding a thread enabled Tcl. In this binary I am also
including a package X (formerly it was a DLL, but I thought it would
be a good idea to just link it in).
In the init sequence I call the X_Init function which 'provides' this
package. All is well: When my Tcl script starts I can make a
package present X
and I get the version number.

However, this is a multi-threaded Tcl app, and my threads need this
package, too. Formerly, when creating a thread I would just do a
package require X
and it would get loaded from the DLL.

Now, no more DLL, but the package /is/ there - right in the binary. Is
there a way to pass it from the main thread to my worker threads?
Or how can I get my threads to load it?
Any insight will be greatly appreciated.
Best regards
Helmut Giese
