Are FFI calls interruptible?

[Edward Z. Yang]

Well, that will result in a race where, if the foreign call gets interrupted,
the asynchronous exception will get queued up and fire immediately once
the FFI call completes, thus enabling libusb_cancel_transfer to be called
but not acquire lock to be called. Is that the desired semantics?
