Well that would certainly save some time :-)

Thanks for your thoughts. I was worried I might be missing some simple
way to bypass the difficulty.

It's easy enough to build, by hand, safe access for each specific case
but, if I submit a library called "safe_concurrent_access.jal" and it's
not safe under all conditions I'm sure someone will manage to trigger
corruption and, rightly enough, call it a bug in the library.

Cheers,
Alun.
