Does the call to gethostbyname occur inside a protected procedure,
even though it blocks, or is it controlled by a semaphore or something
that is a protected object? eg
procedure Get_Host_By_Name(...) is
Grab : gethostbyname_grabber;
begin
gethostbyname(....);
end Get_Host_By_Name;
where the controlled type gethostbyname_grabber has an Initialize
that calls a guarded entry, and thus waits for the guard to allow it
in.
