1049	A means of testing whether code is in blocked or unblocked mode	ChrisKuklewicz		"There is currently no way for code, e.g. in a library, to test whether it is running in a blocked or unblocked state.  The only uses I have for this is to implement work arounds for the problem with throwTo & block (ticket 1047) or to write forkInheritIO in terms of forkIO and forkBlockedIO (from ticket 1048).

something like:

areExceptionsBlocked :: IO Bool -- True in scope of block, false in scope of unblock"	feature request	closed	low	6.8.2	libraries/base	6.6	wontfix	concurrency	Bulat.Ziganshin@…	Unknown/Multiple	Unknown/Multiple		Moderate (less than a day)
