I was able to reproduce this on x86_64, after running a kernel build
on the host as an antogonist.  I'm guessing that the race window is
pretty narrow, so that's why it wasn't triggering for me easily until
I had some additional I/O traffic to slow things down further.

After some investigation, it looks like this bug has been around since
2008(!).  I'll send out a fix.
