When you say "fails" what kind of failure do you get? Is this a timeout or not?
If this is a runtime error, a "seg fault", or whatever but hanging, this is
fine
with me.

I think the question is settled: recursive access to external units is invalid.

This seems the path to follow to implement a runtime error, isn't it?
To be frank, I have a very limited understanding of what you are saying, but
I could look again to the code to figure out what it looks like: I understand
more or less the technical concepts, but not the actual implementation.

Thanks for your time.
