I missed one thing:

There are still three places, where this kind of race condition still
exists:

- net/netdebug.c
  NutDumpSocketList() iterates over the socket list, while there are
  scheduling points.

- hwtest/avr/basemon/webdemo.c:
  ShowSockets() iterates over the socket list, while there are
  scheduling points.

- app/httpd/httpserv.c:
  ShowSockets() iterates over the socket list, while there are
  scheduling points.

I do not have a good idea how to solve these issues here. Only possible
solution: First copy the list, then print it out...

Best regards,

Ole Reinhardt
