:Definitively :)

:I am working on it. I had to become familiar with the LWKT scheduling
:code first. I like it's conceptual simplicity/elegance. While reading
:the code I noticed that one thing that makes the whole code harder to
:read is all those "#if SMP" lines. Everytime you have to flip a switch
:in your mind (my changes won't change that).

Yah. Though in this case you would actually be reducing the amount
of #ifdef'd code by normalizing the token implementation to using
the SMP structure across the board. The implementation would still
need some separation between UP/SMP simply because one can make
certain assumptions in UP that greatly reduce the code, but we
definitely want to make the structure work the same instead of
what we currently have.
