[erlang-questions] net_kernel:handle_call

The documented interface to net_kernel does not define a direct
use of gen_server:call/2 or a direct message passing interface.
The client and server sides of the program are implemented in 
the same module.  If the net_kernel server receives a message 
other than one it expects it is a programming error.
