{section: Returning a pointer of a static buffer inside a function}
It is quite common practice in Condor source code that returning a pointer of a static buffer in a function. It was perfectly fine in a world that pthread is rare and multi-core is unknown. It is obviously non-re-entrant and non-thread-safe. Well, I could do as it was. But, I am slightly uncomfortable of writing such a function. So, I decided to use MyString instead of returning a pointer of a static buffer.
