   255 * Parallel and asynchronous execution requires special care concerning
       
   256 interrupts.  Structure Exn provides some convenience functions that
       
   257 avoid working directly with raw Interrupt.  User code must not absorb
       
   258 interrupts -- intermediate handling (for cleanup etc.) needs to be
       
   259 followed by re-raising of the original exception.  Another common
       
   260 source of mistakes are "handle _" patterns, which make the meaning of
       
   261 the program subject to physical effects of the environment.
