I found it quite hard to apply Thomas' patch. There's actually 3
patches, with 2 earlier patches needed for earlier in the thread. And,
there were significant merge conflicts to work around.
I'm not sure that Thomas'/your patch to ameliorate the problem on the
read stream side is essential here. Perhaps Andres can just take a
look at the test case + feature branch, without the extra patches.
That way he'll be able to see whatever the immediate problem is, which
might be all we need.
