Wow, this one's a doozy. All that talk about multicore this and parallel that and how wonderful language extensions through libraries are, and in the end one of the most basic programming constructs is essentially broken and the "work-around" is a choice between extra boilerplate with reduced clarity and safety or compiler extension trickery. I think that's nuts at this stage of the game.
