Mmmhh... you can use debug.

As a side-note, I have introduced another race by calling the library functions. There is always some good and bad. The regular debugging system prevents this problem by protecting the writes with mutexes. That, however, affects the timing and thus we do not see the real issue. So what I have done is bad, but may be useful. I forgot to mention that with my last post...
