So unless I missed something in the logic, the comment should say something like "doesn't CALL out to other non-uaccess safe code" or so? Which is, arguably, like 99% of all functions - but still, a whole bunch are allowed, such as low level instrumentation and other utility functions. Thanks, Ingo
