with the help of the Usenix paper about it, i understand now.  oh
dear!  he was trying to add it subject to a particular implementation
constraint: that void* could accept a function pointer and still be
one word.  he missed a way of implementing one of the techniques that
he does mention (but only in passing), and so goes to all that acrobatic
effort.  Dijkstra rules!   unless of course, i've missed something.
well, Dijkstra still rules.
