Unusual case and probably needs a better comment. But it is needed.
There is a _Thread_Disable_dispatch() at line 57 and at line 112, the
call to _POSIX_Message_queue_Get() again implicitly increments it.
I suppose the first call could be a _Thread_Unnest_dispatch to indicate
that it was intentional. Even better might be comments indicating where
the nest level goes to 2 and back down to 1.
