threads without locking. Switch "of_node_reused" over to the "flags"
field so modifications are safe.

Not fixing any known bugs; problem is theoretical and found by code
inspection. Change is done somewhat manually and only lightly tested
(mostly compile-time tested).

(no changes since v4)

Changes in v4:
- Use accessor functions for flags

Changes in v3:
- New
