  abstract= "This paper describes what we believe to be an error in the
     implementation of PRI ALT on the Inmos transputer, and
     exhibits anomalous behaviour of that implementation. A
     correct implementation of comparable complexity is
     described, and some of the properties of the construct are
     described. Finally, an attempt is made to describe
     circumstances in which the behaviour of the existing
     implementation is adequate for the correctness of a program
     which uses it."
