Examples giving negative answers to questions asked by \textit{D. E. Koditschek} and \textit{K. S. Narendra} (J. Differ. Equations 54, 181-195 (1984; Zbl 0498.34018)) are produced and a generalization of the theorem of Koditschek and Narendra is proved; the generalization consists of replacing a linear function f by a smooth homogeneous function which takes on both positive and negative values. Results of computer experiments are reported to show ``something of the shapes of the limit cycles to be expected from a system in the form considered.''
