Only if you would like to provide glib with a GThreadFunctions[1]
other than the default.

As documented there:
"Please note that since version 2.24 the GObject initialization
function g_type_init() initializes threads (with a NULL argument), so
most applications, including those using Gtk+ will run with threads
enabled."
Since GStreamer builds upon the GType system[2] it initializes GType
and thus also the glib threading stuff when you call gst_init().
