; Threads.
; This is inspired by Haynes et al's engines.
;
; The fundamental operation is (RUN <thread> <time>), which runs the thread
; for the given amount of time.
;
; Each thread has:
; saved continuation
; saved interrupt mask
; scheduler, which is the thread that RUNs this one
; remaining time in clock ticks ('waiting = waiting for events)
; cell that is holding this thread, if any
; arguments waiting to be passed to the thread when it is next run
; dynamic environment
; dynamic point
; whatever data the scheduler wants
; Schedulers also have:
; list of pending events
; thread that this scheduler is currently running
;
; A `scheduler' is any thread that has called RUN. All threads are organized
; into a tree by the THREAD-SCHEDULER field, with the pointers pointing from
; the leaves to the root.
;
; There is a doubly linked list of running threads linked by the
; the thread-scheduler and thread-current-task fields.
; e1 <-> e2 <-> ... <-> eN-1 <-> eN
; e1 is the top thread and eN is the thread whose code is actually running.
; All except eN are in the middle of a call to RUN. The scheduler pointers
; point to the left and the current-task pointers point to the right.
;
; When an thread stops, its scheduler is run and the portion of the list from
; the stopped thread down is saved for when the stopped thread is resumed. For
; example, suppose e3 runs out of time. Then the list is shortened to
; e1 <-> e2 and the e3 <-...-> eN portion is saved. When e3 is resumed,
; the list is spliced back together and eN's continuation is resumed.
