This occurs before ThreadF.Init().
(err, not clear from below, but I think so).
Would you rather that ThreadF.Init() do initialization on demand,
as pthread and win32thread currently do,
and PushEFrame forever have to check for that case and ThreadF.Init
continue to avoid NEW(), as it currently does?
It isn't great either way but I think this is the preferable path.
Code has to be contorted to avoid circularities..
try/raise/ depend on some initialization unfortunately.
We'll trade contortions. Avoid try/raise/ in a few places,
get back to not having on-demand initialization nor having to use
calloc directly in place of NEW.
PushEFrame will be slightly faster for all callers, not just during
initialization. But just very slightly.
