Patch PE82-1401241
------------------

Platforms: All

* This patch ships the image3k TurboIMAGE compatibility extension
  library in a thread-safe variant.

  The library allows multiple threads to access the Eloquence
  database concurrently. A separate database session is maintained
  for each thread, including its own connection to the database
  server. This allows threads to work independently and take
  advantage of concurrent execution while using a familiar approach
  to access the database.

  As each thread uses a separate database session, a database opened
  in one thread is not visible to other threads, a DBLOCK in one
  thread blocks conflicting locks in other threads, committing a
  transaction only affects the executing thread.

* The internal library revision is "B.08.20.00".
