well ... i was using it for both the "read" message of the threaded
soundfiler and for the join external...
it's good to hear that you don't experience any problems ...
the only drawback is a computation overhead in the scheduler resulting
from the lock-free fifo implementation.
also, i'm not sure, if the cas2 macro for ppc is working properly (fully
atomic) ... i read about a cas2 instruction, but couldn't find any
useful information about that (maybe one of the mac gurus out there have
an idea)

well, i'm not really good at naming api functions ... sys_callback is a
much better name than set_callback ...
i'll adjust the sources ...

cheers ... tim
