  * Capabilities

- * The notion of a capability is used when operating in multi-threaded
- * environments (which the THREADED_RTS build of the RTS does), to
- * hold all the state an OS thread/task needs to run Haskell code:
- * its STG registers, a pointer to its  TSO, a nursery etc. During
- * STG execution, a pointer to the capabilitity is kept in a 
- * register (BaseReg).
