However I still think (finally) does something *slightly* different to
what is done by (dynamic-wind): where (dynamic-wind) executes its
third thunk on *any* throw past it, I'd expect (finally) to be
triggered by only either normal return, or exception-throw.
I don't understand why this makes any difference. No matter
how you get out, by a normal return, an exception throw, or
some other throw, you can still throw back in. An exception
throw is no more 'final' than any other throw.
