:Hi all,
:
:i'm currently porting conky (a nice system monitor utility) to dfly, and
:when running the binary i'm constantly incurring in following livelock:
:
:lwkt_setcpu_remote: td->td_flags 00800621
:lwkt_setcpu_remote: td->td_flags 00800621
:lwkt_setcpu_remote: td->td_flags 00800621
:...

    Shoot, I had hoped those were fixed.  At this point I think I'm going
    to have to rewrite the mechanism entirely by adding some assembly to
    deal with the case in the thread switch code.
