Raciness seems to be restricted to pool compressor.  "zbud" seems to be
solid, virgin "zsmalloc" explodes, as does "z3fold" regardless which of
us puts his grubby fingerprints on it.

Exploding compressors survived zero runs of runltp -f mm, I declared
zbud to be at least kinda sorta stable after box survived five runs.
