I've modified the json_object_get() and json_object_put() functions to use atomic updates of the refcount. This allows json objects to be safely moved and copied between threads.
It uses the atomic builtin functions of GCC (see https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.1.2/gcc/Atomic-Builtins.html). These functions are also already used inside the linkhash.c file of this json-c library, so I think that it is not much of a problem that they will be used inside json_object.c too.
