It does not apply to anything.

This is an idea by Herb Sutter and, to be honest, I agree with him that const 
*should* mean that.

But it doesn't. The language does not enforce anything. There's no way to 
guarantee that the user code in a const function is actually thread-safe. It's 
very easy to break out of the safety:

	const_cast
	mutable
