The only problem I have observed with this is that if
Scheme unmasks the inexact-result exception, it crashes, because the
thread timer uses primitives (REAL-TIME-CLOCK) that perform inexact
floating-point operations. But there may be other problems. (E.g.,
maybe changing the rounding mode could make the real-time clock run
backwards briefly.)

Spooky. Hmmmmmm...
