So  Thread.copyCurrent  is  the  equivalent  of fork (but in the thread world
instead of the process world)?  No, that can't be right.  I'm confused  about
Thread.saved/Thread.clearSaved.

This  implementation  still  does, it looks like, a full copy of the stack at
callcc time and also when you call the continuation, right?
