Norman Ramsey asks:

       PROCEDURE AlertJoin (t: T): REFANY RAISES {Alerted};
       (* Like Join, but if the thread is marked alerted at the time
          of call or sometime during the wait, raise Alerted.
          Implementations may raise additional exceptions.  *)
     I assume ``the thread'' referred to is the thread executing
     AlertJoin, not the thread t which is the argument to AlertJoin?

Correct.  More evidence of the need for Larch Modula-3.
