Tom, it really sounds like you are still living in a 286
world here. All the real time executives I am familiar with
in the modern ia32 world operate with a single segment
model. Indeed the whole segmentation stuff in the ia32 is a
bit of a relic at this stage (Henderson in reviewing my
book on Microprocessors wrote a note that said "does anyone
use this segment junk" or words to that effect :-)
