The vibe.core.concurrency module provides the same interface as 
std.concurrency (with some different details). Once Sean's fiber 
additions to std.concurrency will be ready, vibe.core.concurrency will 
be layered on top of (and finally replaced by) it.

There is also vibe.stream.taskpipe, which offers a stream interface for 
passing data between tasks. This works for tasks in the same or in 
different threads.
