     25  * A similar effect could be accomplished by adding a listener to the delegate
     26  * future that sets a normal settable future after the delegate is complete.
     27  * This approach gains us the ability to keep track of whether a delegate has
     28  * been set (i.e. so that we can prevent collisions from setting it twice and
     29  * can know before the computation is done whether it has been set), as well
     30  * as improved cancellation semantics (i.e. if either future is cancelled,
     31  * then the other one is too).  This class is thread-safe.
