-{- Old Gransim com -- I have no idea whether it still makes sense (SLPJ Sep07)
-For GrAnSim the code for doing a heap check and doing a context switch
-has been separated. Especially, the HEAP_CHK macro only performs a
-heap check. THREAD_CONTEXT_SWITCH should be used for doing a context
-switch. GRAN_FETCH_AND_RESCHEDULE must be put at the beginning of
-every slow entry code in order to simulate the fetching of
-closures. If fetching is necessary (i.e. current closure is not local)
-then an automatic context switch is done. -}
-
-
-When failing a check, we save a return address on the stack and
-jump to a pre-compiled code fragment that saves the live registers
-and returns to the scheduler.
-
-The return address in most cases will be the beginning of the basic
-block in which the check resides, since we need to perform the check
-again on re-entry because someone else might have stolen the resource
-in the meantime.
