I've been playing around with a crashy program as of late, and I was
curious. If I have a series of cputs(), each of which is immediately
followed by an lcd_refresh(), is it possible that the program crashes
after a pair of those, yet the string in cputs() never gets displayed? For
example:

cputs("test"); <-- will this always get displayed?
lcd_refresh();
Crash();

I could see where a lockup could prevent some LCD routine from doing what
it needs to do, particularly if it's handled by another thread. Is this
the case?
