what about "joining" threads, and comparing the output at those points? For
async IO, a join is more or less implemented by a "wait" operation, no? (or
the parrot equivalent for that).
just a thought.

Is it acceptable for each line to be a unit? If so, then each thread
could be written to use a distinct tag, and the output comparator can
insist on the order only within lines with the same tag. For example:
T1:1
T2:alarm1
T1:2
T2:alarm2
T1:3
T3:alarm3
T2:alarm1
T4:alarm3
. . .
Of course, each line would need to be printed atomically, e.g. by
constructing it as a string first.
