I'm wondering if I should have cleaned this area up more. I was
cleaning up the semaphores because the functions that locked those
HOST_IF_MSG's has been removed. However, the "handlers" for these
returned HOST_IF_MSG's still exist, as does the case in the
hostIFthread() switch.
They seem like artifacts, but then again, they could be needed for
some pass-thru mode.
Leave it, clean it, or seek more info?
Thanks,
