Really? I thought that was what REFR was for, not RENT. My understanding was that RENT simply means that the module can be executed my multiple tasks simultaneously. I have written modules that were reentrant, but which modified themselves. (I'm not saying it was a good idea.) They were very careful with their modifications (using CS / CDS, etc), but the fact remains, they were reentrant. But not refreshable.
