  var v = yield thunk(12);
  var w = yield [24];
  var x = yield Rx.Observable.just(42);
  var y = yield Rx.Observable.just(56);
  var z = yield Promise.resolve(78);
  return v + w[0] + x + y + z;
});

spawned.subscribe(
  function (x) { console.log('next %s', x); },
  function (e) { console.log('error %s', e); },
