Don't we need to set delayed_event somewhere too first? At least I don't
really understand how this speeds things up ... The patch itself looks
like a valid bugfix, but the description confuses me a bit. I think if you
delete the above paragraph (starting with "With this change we can react
...") then it's all good.
