I think that especially on CE, you'd really want to use a lock (on slow path) and never busy-wait... priority inversions, y'know.
Very good point, I knew I'd missed something :-) It would be easy enough to bump up the priority of the thread performing the once-call (the priority ceiling approach), priority inheritance looks more elegant, but is rather harder to implement. John.
