[compost_tea] Plywood in compost?

Hi,

I hope my question is not too off-topic, but when I do home repair
or other carpentry projects, I usually put the old and scrap wood
onto the same backyard pile that includes yard trimmings, leaf mold,
etc.  Then I wait a few years, until the wood is falling apart. 
Eventually, I use it as soil amendment, or to cover my worm
composting bin.

My question is: if I slow-compost plywood this way, should I worry
about toxins in the glue? 

Thanks in advance.
