Oh, of course not.  I was answering the first question,
about the specific infcall to resolve "strcmp" when the
user did "p strcmp" or "b strcmp".  I assume you meant to
sched-lock that call, which would be the same as "on",
but maybe I misunderstood what you meant.  A reply to
the second question would be similar to
the "That's another story." reply.  ;-)
