Hi Steve,

According to the call stack below, yyparse also calling yylex internally,
which is not considered to be reentrant I think.

*mapserver!yylex+0x1b5
[e:\builds-t1\src\mapserver-intramaps\vc15x64\mapparser.y @ 858]
mapserver!yyparse+0x247 [e:\home\even\mapserver\mapserver\mapparser.c @ 1461]
mapserver!msEvalContext+0x178
[e:\builds-t1\src\mapserver-intramaps\maputil.c @ 442]*


Best regards,

Tamas
