It doesn't "enable multithreading" as such, but instead uses
a multi-thread-safe version of the statically linked standard
C library. You can use threads in an application linked against
the non-thread-safe library, but doing stuff like malloc()
simultaneously in different threads is prone to breakage.

curl links against the dynamically linked version of the C
standard library, which is also thread safe. The /MD
flag does this.
