Package: bullet
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Multhreaded bullet has been available since 2014, yet is still not packaged. 
Since bullet already ships with single and double precision packages, it 
seems not to be too much trouble to introduce a -mt version as well.

Arch already has a bullet-multithreaded package, as seen here:
https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/bullet-multithreaded/

One package that would directly benefit from this would be OpenMW:   
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/openmw
they currently make use of async physics (putting bullet into its           
own thread), but can spawn off additional threads of the bullet
library if it has been compiled with mt support.

I'm also willing to help where needed to make this happen. :)

Cheers,
Bret Curtis
