Comment:

 In HEAD it is currently written:

 {{{
 If you need to unblock asynchronous exceptions again in the exception
 handler, just use 'unblock' as normal.
 }}}

 So unblock still works? Isn't the idea that mask does not allow that
 without restore function? But than standard Haskell bracket will be always
 masked/blocked in after computation? This part of documentation still
 mentions block few times. Probably this should be clarified?
