Ahh, I see. I must have stuffed because now when I check I see that without 
disable-interrupts I get the C_check_for_interrupt. That call checks and 
raises a timer interrupt if it's time to do so. It won't actually stop an 
interrupt from being handled in C_reclaim if some other code (perhaps called 
by the code that had interrupts disabled) raises the interrupt I'm assuming.
