It is not necessary to have the entire program be reentrant to want the generation of reentrant code. This, I would suspect, is a more common use for reentrancy than things that require multi-tasking (at least on personal machines). (I know there are other ways to be recursive, but reentrancy does make it all a lot easier.) Alan
