Looking at the manual page, strtok() is implicitly defined as non-reentrant when strtok_r is explicitly defined as reentrant. I wouldn't feel comfortable with adding to the manual page of every non-reentrant function, a warning against its use in library code. To me, that feels like adding to every manual page for a utility that produces output, a warning that redirecting the output to a file with the shell ">" operator will destroy the existing contents of the file. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.
