That is, will the formal parameters be trashed? Do you need to use locks or semaphores before using formal parameters? Are the labels for formal parameters static? If I have 73 threads, all calling a large function 'f', are the local values thread safe? Does each thread maintain it's own stack? Are the labels for local values stack-based?
