4.1-rc8-rt4 contains this via 4.0-rt4, and seems fine on my 64 core
DL980.  I ran a few iterations of futextests and stockfish, then mixed
two loops of futextest at different rt prios, with stockfish also rt,
and ltplight as tossed in as... crack filler.  Box is still doing that,
is way too busy, but not griping about it.
