Yes, and it makes me think that if the scheduler finds that no
tasks are active, i.e. no task can ever run again, then
instead of issuing a fatal error like I do now, I should
just abort(0) the program at that point. I had been concerned
that this situation might happen sort of accidentally, and
the programmer would be puzzled about why his program ended,
but now I think he will probably understand what happened,
especially since he must have killed task 0 at some point.
