OK, given this definition I'd agree, but I'm concerned that the more
common understanding of non-reentrant functions (in most people's minds)
is that the function is also not thread-safe, but in this case we have a
non-reentrant function that IS thread-safe (in spite of the quote you
supplied implying that such a thing may not be possible <G>).

Given that, the comment in utils.h in trunk is completely accurate, so
we should probably copy those doc changes back down to 1.4 as well.
