Bug Description
From the TODO:
TIMEOUTS
Asyncronous unwinds suck horribly, but to implement reliable systems
one simply needs timeouts. These should probably be local, since
otherwise they effectively become asynchronous unwinds. Basically,
for any potentially blocking operation there should be a :TIMEOUT
arguent (or a version of the operation that accepts the argument).

Done for threading stuff.
Blocking reads still exist.
