The thing that surprises me most about Rust and Go in particular is that they're trying to solve an OS problem with new language abstractions. You don't need a new language -- what you really want is thread-agnostic I/O primitives, thread-agnostic "threadpool" primitives, and completion-oriented APIs that provide both synchronous and asynchronous primitives. Basically, you want what Windows has.
