Nice debugging work.

I'd suggest something like the attached (boot tested) patch as the simple
fix for now.

I expect the benefits from the less synchronized, multiple-in-flight-data
global queue will still outweigh the costs of dynamic allocations. But
if worst comes to worst then we just go back to a globally synchronous
one-at-a-time implementation, but that would be pretty sad!
