How do I get a thread safe print in Python 2.6?

I dont know if there is any better way instead this locking mechanism, but atleast it looks easy. I am also not sure if printing really isnt thread safe.

Edit: Okay tested it my self now, you are right, you can get really wierd looking output. And you dont need the future import, its just there, because i use Python 2.7.

from __future__ import print_function
from threading import Lock

print_lock = Lock()
def save_print(*args, **kwargs):
  with print_lock:
    print (*args, **kwargs)

save_print("test", "omg", sep='lol')
