   This is not possible in general. The diagonal test case must make   
   exactly one decision and then behave in a contradictory way: halt or   
   not. If it interrogates as few as two deciders, it becomes intractable   
   if their decisions differ: to contradict one is to agree with the other.   
      
   If the deciders are H0(P) { return 0; } and H1(P) { return 1; } you can   
   see that between the two of them, they cover the entire space: there   
   cannot be a signal case whch both of these don't get right. One   
   correctly decides all nonterminating cases; the other correctly decies   
   all terminating cases, and every case is one or the other.
