I'd be willing to have it be supported, if someone else wants to do
most of the work. However, at first I didn't even understand what it
was for, so I didn't try to keep it working. Now I can at least
appreciate that it's important, but I still haven't tried to
understand what it does in any detail, and certainly haven't been
thinking about keeping it working or testing it, so it's probably
broken in various ways.

I agree that it probably doesn't make sense as a contrib module, for
many of the same reasons as threading, to which it seems to be
related.
