BTW, what happens if we insert into one queue and immediately get
woken up, even before the damn thing gets to the end of ->poll(),
which proceeds to call poll_wait() again (on another queue)?
AFAICS, apt.error will be set by the second callback and completely
ignored.  And so will the return value of ->poll()...

Sigh...  Analysis of that thing is bloody painful, mostly because
it's hard to describe the state...
