Replacing unsigned int with std::atomic_uint for the member "count" in 
CGAL/Handle_for.h would go a long way for Gmpq. You can try similar things 
in other Handle* files, Handle.h looks like it might be ok with a simple 
int -> std::atomic_int, Handle_with_policy would be hard. Sorry, if it was 
trivial it probably would have been done already.

Also, please don't send personal answers, always reply to the list.
