What do you mean by 'livelock' ? I would assume you mean 'the Pharo UI becoming unresponsive', right ?
Pharo is properly multithreading, but
(1) it is pretty easy to do something so that the UI thread is busy
(2) it is pretty easy to do enough work in another thread so that things get very slow
In both cases, Pharo would feel pretty dead, but it technically is not (completely)
