I'm probably being dense, but I'm still not quite sure I understand
what you're saying.  I'm assuming you're saying what I said above,
namely that, upon invoking a continuation, the dynamic bindings are
restored to the same locations as in the thread where the continuation
was captured, and thus now shared between the two thread.  If that's
true, the formerly thread-local nature of the parameters seems to be
fractured.
