I had 2.067 unittest failures without this change, I don't recall which.
I know it made me laugh becase exceptions were being thrown from Fiber A
but being caught by Fiber B.  I can easily find out what fails by
rerunning without the change. I'll report back later.

There may be a few other holes between how Fibers and EH interact.
