The key is in:
  lInUse := ! lInUse
line. This code can be MT safe _only_ if xBase++ executes this
whole line as one atomic operation.
So far I haven't found any information about such functionality.

I see no sign this expression would be atomic.

I'd think if it would be, there would exist some
sort of documentation (but at list a list) of the
such automatically grouped operations, otherwise it's
very difficult to decide for a programmer what to
expect. It's even more difficult to test.

But of course, I may be wrong.

Brgds,
Viktor
