I think it is not too hard to mix Lwt.t and Defered.t values, one can
start with something like that:
let lwt_of_async t =
let waiter, wakener = Lwt.wait () in
Defered.upon t (Lwt.wakeup wakener);
waiter
let async_of_lwt t =
Defered.create (fun ivar -> Lwt.on_success t (Ivar.fill ivar))
But we need to check how this behaves with error handling, and also the
local storage of Lwt.
For the scheduler the easiest solution is probalby to write a Lwt engine
based on Async.
