 *	Header file for generic list functions operating on singly linked
 *	null-terminated lists.  Items may not be REMOVED from the list!  The
 *	intent is that the list can be traversed (for read-only operations)
 *	without locking, since insertion is "safe" (though not truely
 *	atomic).  THIS ASSUMES THAT THE HARDWARE MAKES WRITES VISIBLE TO READS
 *	IN THE ORDER IN WHICH THEY OCCURRED!  WITHOUT SUCH READ/WRITE
 *	ORDERING, IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO INSERT "BARRIERS" TO PRODUCE THE
 *	REQUIRED VISIBILITY!
