That's good to know.

What I need is to spork a member function from within another member 
function. And contrary to what my simple example suggest, there is 
indeed something fishy here.

At least I can't make my semi complicated example (attached) work. It's 
supposed to listen for 5 taps on the a midikeyboard, and on the fifth, 
stop all signalling shreds, update the tempo and restart the signalling 
shreds.

As the code is attached i get
[chuck](VM): NullPointerException: shred[id=2:spork~exp], PC=[3]
If I try to do as the working mini example attached in the first mail 
(declaring sendQuarter static) chuck seg faults. I hope this works more 
convincingly in the upcomming release.
