This depends a lot on your tasking implementation, so you really need to tell
us what compiler and OS you are using. In general it should work, but there
are some tricky problems that can arise when your compiler implements tasks
as processes (eg: the Nighthawk's Ada83).
More likely you have some kind of race condition...
