since the threads are created by lua_newthread(), then i guess all are
running on the same C thread, without any multitasking, right?  if so,
then he can't do anything "while waiting for the return"

also, since there doesn't seem to be any hard multitasking, then i
guess the whole system could be implemented much easier using
coroutines instead of lua_newthread().
