And there is another problem with 'yield', it means something different in
most of the language that implements coroutine.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coroutine

Moreover, there is already a prototype of coroutine in mlvm repository.
Even if this prototype doesn't require the 'yield' keyword, i think 
'yield' should be
reserved for that usage.
