Comment (by nickm):

 I hacked around to make it compile and work under chutney, and to actually
 make cells get queued from the scheduler in my branch
 "cmux_refactor_pt_1_hacks".  Some of the commits in that branch are good;
 some are necessary, and 0b3822dbe6367eb5eb is a total kludge.

 Next, I need to figure out how to have some channels linger in the
 channels_pending state without having the scheduler busy-loop, and I need
 to get these hacks I did better reviewed and tested, and I need to stress-
 test the code even harder.
