Don't we potentially have the same problem with all on_dsm_detach 
callbacks? Looking at the other on_dsm_detach callbacks, I don't see any 
CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPT() calls in them, but it seems fragile to assume that.

I'd suggest adding HOLD/RESUME_INTERRUPTS() to dsm_detach(). At least 
around the removal of the callback from the list and calling the 
callback. Maybe even over the whole function.
