That's right, thanks for pointing that out. Just sent a v9 version of
the patchset fixing that and also dropping the log level for the error
returned when the queue is full. In practice, the queue can become
full pretty often, for instance when waiting on a remote output
connection so these logs end up polluting the output in situations
that are not really problematic.

Thanks for looking into this!
