It's tricky 5 bugs, and they are quite sensitive on rare
timing/concurrency events.

First two are fixed, we can live with 5th being done later (as it's not
correctness fix, but very bad performance one).

We haven't figured way for fixing the 4th one that we all agree is good
solution (everything proposed so far still had bugs).

I am not quite sure what happened to the 3rd one.
