Comment(by kazu-yamamoto):

 First of all, I would like to discuss what is the best behavior when the
 stack of IO manager overflows.

 Note that in the current parallel IO manager, timer manager and IO
 managers are separated. We should apply this discussion to the timer
 manager.

 A comment to the first patch: even if we set manager's FD to -1, nobody
 refers to it. What is the purpose of this patch?
