For instance the Protocols.HTTP client can use both synchronous, asynchronous and threaded mode. :)
Pike uses both inheritance and callback function pointers, depending on what was convenient. Some can use both.

Sure, in general, one can choose between using threads and syncronous (blocking) functions, and using an eventloop and asyncronous functions with callbacks. Many pike modules support both modes of operation.
