// The Watchdog class creates a second thread that can Alarm if a specific
// duration of time passes without proper attention.  The duration of time is
// specified at construction time.  The Watchdog may be used many times by
// simply calling Arm() (to start timing) and Disarm() (to reset the timer).
// The Watchdog is typically used under a debugger, where the stack traces on
// other threads can be examined if/when the Watchdog alarms.

// Some watchdogs will be enabled or disabled via command line switches. To
// facilitate such code, an "enabled" argument for the constuctor can be used
// to permanently disable the watchdog.  Disabled watchdogs don't even spawn
// a second thread, and their methods call (Arm() and Disarm()) return very
// quickly.
