   // The purpose of this test is to confirm that the DPI-call serialization
   // code in V3Partition does ensure that these DPI calls do not run
   // concurrently.
   //
   // Alternatively, the test may be run with "--threads-dpi all" in which case
   // it should confirm that the calls do run concurrently and do detect a
   // collision (they should, if the test is set up right.)  This is
   // t_dpi_threads_collide.pl.
   //
   // Q) Is it a risk that the partitioner will merge or serialize these always
   //    blocks, just by luck, even if the DPI-call serialization code fails?
   //
   // A) Yes, that's why t_dpi_threads_collide.pl also passes
   //    --no-threads-do-coaren to disable MTask coarsening.  This ensures that
   //    the MTask graph at the end of FixDataHazards (where we resolve DPI
   //    hazards) is basically the final MTasks graph, and that data hazards
   //    which persist beyond FixDataHazards should persist in the final
   //    generated C code.
