Nope.  wakeUp is only for waking up the reactor from another thread. 
callLater is not allowed to be called from another thread.

Lots of weird threaded stuff is going on in the threadedselect code 
which means extra wakeUp calls are necessary at various places, but none 
of the other reactors need it.
