Descrizione
I recently ran into a bad trap: I had another `require('web-worker')` in the code of the child and not only in the parent. This doesn't work, because the `workerThread` function is then executed again. The symptom is that messages are received twice in the worker.
This was hard to figure out. Note that this is not really a user's error, because a web worker is normally allowed to start another web worker. So it makes sense in general. (In my code, I could simply comment the bad `require` out, though.)
I guess that you need to split `node.js` into two files for this, because the main/worker dichotomy doesn't work anymore when workers can start workers.

Direzione di ricerca
Start by reading node.js and tracing how require('web-worker') invokes workerThread in both the parent and child. Reproduce the nested-worker case described in the issue and verify that messages are delivered once, then determine whether splitting node.js is sufficient to support workers starting further workers.
