Hm, is this really something we want to get into? Nice to remove the dependency, but when something breaks in the future, do we have any/many developers who can support x86 assembly code?
I really think that if we're going to have to support this, it should be something conceptually simpler, like an emulation of coroutines using a set of threads and locks.
