This case is fine. The tricky part is the opposite:
- we check the private state, see that it is stopped and decide that
we have nothing to do
- meanwhile, the private state flips back to running (e.g. because it
was just temporarily stopped while it was stepping over a breakpoint)
- RunThreadPlan carries on running oblivious to the fact that someone
tried to interrupt it
- process does not stop
