//! Task bookkeeping
//!
//! This module keeps track of the number of running tasks so that entry points
//! with libnative know when it's possible to exit the program (once all tasks
//! have exited).
//!
//! The green counterpart for this is bookkeeping on sched pools, and it's up to
//! each respective runtime to make sure that they call increment() and
//! decrement() manually.

#[experimental]; // this is a massive code smell
#[doc(hidden)];
