+ * The callback is executed from a separate thread which shares only the
+ * address space, the filesystem, and the filehandles with the caller. Most
+ * notably, it does not share the same pid and ppid; and if it terminates,
+ * the rest of the application is still there. 'callback' is supposed to do
+ * or arrange for ResumeAllProcessThreads. This happens automatically, if
+ * the thread raises a synchronous signal (e.g. SIGSEGV); asynchronous
+ * signals are blocked. If the 'callback' decides to unblock them, it must
+ * ensure that they cannot terminate the application, or that
+ * ResumeAllProcessThreads will get called.
+ * It is an error for the 'callback' to make any library calls that could
+ * acquire locks. Most notably, this means that most system calls have to
+ * avoid going through libc. Also, this means that it is not legal to call
+ * exit() or abort().
+ * We return -1 on error and the return value of 'callback' on success.
