	The purpose of add_abstract_code is to give Dialyzer some abstract code so that it will not fail fatally when analysing prim_eval which was compiled from BEAM assembly. But if Dialyzer were to pass along the compiler options that the module was compiled with when translating the abstract code to Core Erlang, the 'from_asm' option would crash the compilation. Thus, since we are already cheating, we should cheat a little bit more and also remove the 'from_asm' option.

	Using the low-level BEAM instructions, we can loop over each message in the process queue and removes the first message that matches, without receiving them all to later send them back to itself. The function prim_eval:'receive'/2 is equivalent to the following pseudo-code: 'receive'(F, T) -> RESET MESSAGE QUEUE POINTER, LOOP: case PEEK CURRENT MESSAGE WITH TIMEOUT T of {ok,Msg} -> case F(Msg) of nomatch -> DECREMENT TIMEOUT T, ADVANCE MESSAGE QUEUE POINTER, GOTO LOOP; Result -> RESET MESSAGE QUEUE POINTER, Result end; timeout -> RESET MESSAGE QUEUE POINTER, timeout end. To not break Dialyzer and other tools, we use a stub Erlang module which abstract code is forcefully inserted into prim_inet.erl afterwards compilation.
