Inside one protected object, or inside any protected object? Is it
effectively one single protected object and all protected object are its
facets.

The scenario is: Task1 calls P1 on O1. Task2 calls P2 on O2. Both P1 and
P2 call Protected_Trace on the protected Tracer object. If tasks occupy
two different cores, would/should one suspend (in order not use the
reserved word "block") another?

And this raises the same question. Pool must be interlocked, but not
block. What is the semantics of this "non-blocking" interlocking on a
multi-core machine?
