This material is taken from page 369 of the version 6.00 "Microsoft C
Advanced Programming Techniques" manual.

The C run-time functions listed below are re-entrant and can be used
in multithreaded OS/2 programs with the standard libraries.

However, Microsoft recommends use of the multithreaded C run-time
library LLIBCMT.LIB, which allows free use of C run-time library
functions, instead of restricting yourself to the functions below.

   abs         memcpy          srcat         strnset
   atoi        memchr          strchr        strrchr
   atol        memcmp          strcmpi       strrev
   bsearch     memcpy          strcmpi       strset
   chdir       memicmp         strcpy        strstr
   getpid      memmove         stricmp       strupr
   halloc      memset          strlen        swab
   hfree       mkdir           strlwr        tolower
   itoa        movedata        strncat       toupper
   labs        putch           strncmp
   lfind       rmdir           strncpy
   lsearch     segread         strnicmp
