I actually do not think we would seriously miss strtok_r(); as long
as the rationale for doing so is clearly described, I think we are
OK.  Just do not sell string-list as if it were the solution to
everything (which is not---it is a rather poor data structure), but
compare string_list_split() with strtok_r() and say our application
hasn't needed the flexibility of the latter.

Thanks.
