Given that the runtime service can be invoked in a multi-threaded OS 
environment,
it is possible that one thread could be stuck with the lock while another 
thread times
out waiting to acquire the lock. In that case, I believe the global lock should 
not be
released. I can move setting the flag to FALSE within the same conditional 
block in
which it is set.

Thanks,
Michael
