Having thought about this, I don't think this is actually a problem,
since this isn't any worse than what we currently have in master.
Listening backends can currently end up stationary behind QUEUE_HEAD, in
exactly this situation, when they don't read up until QUEUE_HEAD in
asyncQueueReadAllNotifications. In this case, we currently rely on
another NOTIFY to wake them up, so v24 wouldn't be any worse.
My apologies for again making the mistake of mixing in robustness
improvements into this patch. I must keep in mind this is solely an
optimization patch.
I'm therefore attaching v24 again, but renamed to v26.
