EXCP queuing and PAV.



Is it worth adding complexity that sometimes would not help,  depending on 
the hardware configuration and UCB definitions, and other times  would run in 
1/10 the elapsed time?  Add code to look for hardware/software  options and, if 
they are there, then exploit the hell out of them.  Which  would mean having 
more than one outstanding EXCP that your complex code would  have to keep track 
of.
