def notify *x

Send a message to the spawned process
def notify *x
  me = self
  EM.next_tick {
    # A notification executes in the context of this
    # SpawnedProcess object. That makes self and notify
    # work as one would expect.
    #
    y = me.call(*x)
    if y and y.respond_to?(:pull_out_yield_block)
      a,b = y.pull_out_yield_block
