(* Remote counters are *global* counters for fresh ids. In the master/slave
* scenario, the slave installs a getter that asks the master for a fresh
* value. In the scenario of a slave that runs after the death of the master
* on some marshalled data, a backup of all counters status should be taken and
* restored to avoid reusing ids.
* Counters cannot be created by threads, they must be created once and forall
* as toplevel module declarations. *)
