* many such calls on the stack at the same time.
|
|
*
|
|
* We say an enterNestedEventLoop call is "running" if it has not yet been
|
|
* asked to return, or "stopped" if it has been asked to return once it has
|
|
* finished processing the current event.

* necessary running; exitNestedEventLoop can ask any

|
