asterisk users - Sep 2005 - Is "ChanIsAvail" thread safe?

Curious whether the ChanIsAvail command is thread safe. By that I mean, if I 
use ChanIsAvail to determine which channel to use, can I be sure that it 
will still be available when I go to Dial it on the next line? It occurs to 
me that there's a possibility the channel could get used by a competing 
thread AFTER my thread has determined it is available and BEFORE my thread 
gets a chance to Dial.

Thanks,
Hugh

This is the kind of question whose answer the good people at asterisk-dev 
are probably more knowledgeable about...
