Really? There just been lengthy discussion in 'comp.programming.threads'
and 'comp.lang.c++.moderated' newsgroups about what volatile actually means
in C/C++ between rather experienced programmers. I had no intention to repeat
all that here.

Anything can happen if the code is broken in the first place. Just use RTEMS
mutual exclusion primitives correctly and it will work fine no matter if
volatile is present or not.
