Yes I know. However we need to assure that the task switches back to secondary 
domain after using skin's call, since otherwise it would affect other linux 
tasks which actual have a higher linux-priority. In general we try to simulate 
something like "priority coupling" since this is marked as deprecated.

I have enabled CONFIG_XENO_OPT_DEBUG_NUCLEUS now but I do not see any according 
message.
