You need to write it so that it is NATURALLY
reentrant, if that is your requirement. There
would be a lot of extra baggage required to
force an arbitrary C program to be reentrant,
baggage that is not yet available.

Sure. And if you'd actually followed what I said
to do so long ago, you would have had naturally
reentrant C code up and running already.

I picked an even easier task for you to do,
which would take less than an hour to do.

I did that a long time ago.

Yes, and I have offered to do that, and told
you what you need to do already.

Nothing I suggested takes 2-4 days. I assume by
this stage you've simply started lying.

And I gave you less than 30 minutes of stuff to do,
which didn't involve lying.

More to the point, you have refused to spend even
30 minutes on testing C, despite saying that you
were willing to spend a day on it.

On top of the blatant lying about what I said.

Well, no personal hard feelings from me, but
the bad taste remains.

BFN.  Paul.
