19 - fix a longstanding bug where calling terminate on a coro that
20 was waiting for a semaphore that was just becoming available
21 would cause a deadlock (semaphore would get into a state where
22 it was available but waiters were waiting(.
23 - avoid deadlock in Coro::Channel if maxsize == 1 (Richard Hundt).
