Note sure about C-mode, but C++ mode should be safe enough.
(Read "re-entrant")

lots 'o leaks. (Are there any re-entrancy problems with setjmp/longjmp?
I'm not terribly familiar with them...)

The last time I looked there were a few places (like an error routine)
which had static local variables for temporaries.
