* it's on a bunch of cyclic lists. Have its neighbor
go away while you are doing all that crap => boom
* there's that thing call current position... It gets buggered.
* overwriting it while another task might be in the middle of
syscall involving it => boom
* non-cooperative tasks reading *in* *parallel* from the same
opened file are going to have a lot more serious problems than agreeing
