Message:

Fixed the test suite

• So now I can push out another version of this thing that isn't fscked.
• I apparently didn't know what I was doing when I wrote the test suite
  • A number of race conditions found (fixed)
  • One test was completely broken and needs rewritten, for now it's disabled

Note: As far as I could tell it seems that nothing is really wrong with
the component itself. Something is however wrong with how the test suite was
using it. It effectively had no locks and relied on the order of execution
from the threads (making it work part of the time). For most intents and
purposes, it's been fixed. The threshold testing (rather important) is
currently disabled but so far as I can tell there is nothing wrong with it
other than how the tests were written.
