Looks good to me. st->left and st->active seems to be same as we never
dequeue the group while it is being serviced.

I think in previous implementations I had first dequeued the group while
it is being serviced and in that case st->left and st->active will be
different, hence this additional pointer. Later changed the implementation
and now st->active should not be needed.

Thanks for the cleanup Gui.
