Really interesting point Abel, but aren't you effectively hacking a

Yes, that's why I hoped (ehrm, dreamt) that there was another way.

and only then can you
get them if you call that function without calling others in between -
for example:

<snip />

which makes the output:

1 4 7 10 13

Indeed. That's why my solution is not so nice, not cross-processor and impossible to stabilize (i.e, the order of execution, and hence the creation of the nodes, is unpredictable in the least).
