I'm sure I will receive an opposite answer to this quickly, it just occurs to be my 
respectful opinion based on studies of the code that this would be an unsafe assumption.

The data structures appear to me to still allow conditions where load can get out
of control. Similarly, the previous error message was an indication of race condition
(haven't checked though now if it remains in 1.2).
