I looked at your code and I think it's OK. I'm using it for some days
without any problem. I also stressed it with pretty tight timings and it
worked fine all the time.
Since I could not reproduce that problem before, except in some rare random
circumstances, I'm not a good tester at all. At most I can say that your
patch does not make things worse :)
