SVGALib is nonreentrant in the sense that when I bing SVP as a PDF viewer into
the Links browser, Links blocks the terminal and forks to run SVP. SVP gets
stuck in a text mode. BTW, ZGV also gets stuck when I bind it there.

Links blocks the terminal by calling vga_setmode(TEXT).

Is there any way how to make this work? I don't want to run X Window
Shitstem every time I want to browse electronic parts datasheets on
the Google.
