More than a decade and a half ago, I wrote a program which had a piece
of code in it that essentially
stated, only GOD should mess with this section of code and if you do,
then it will take a miracle for the
system NOT to crash.  Well this section of code used the GETPRIV to move
a section of code into the
linear B queue to execute before returning back to USERMODE.

Olav.
