I see now, you are right. If I understand the logic now (basically each loop
iteration triggering new callNext via callback), the problem is sharing
callQueue_ in between threads and you need to guard the access by some mutex or
similar. And the same for nforks_current variable and any shared variable
recursively accessed in stopCaller...
If I got it right (not necessarily) then also stopCaller is called for each
iteration loop at the end?
