[Bug manual/4816] Section "24.4.7.1 Problems with Non-Atomic Access" of the libc manual


------- Additional Comments From dranger003 at gmail dot com  2007-07-19 20:04 -------
As per the following page:

http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Nonreentrancy.html#Nonreentrancy

"If your handler needs to access any global variables from your program, declare
those variables volatile. This tells the compiler that the value of the variable
might change asynchronously, and inhibits certain optimizations that would be
invalidated by such modifications."
