If one used those preds to try putting values on the channels one is asking about, then yes, that would generate a classic nasty check-then-act scenario:
(when-not (closed? c) (>! c 42)) ;; Value could be never put, in face of interleavings Programmers experienced in concurrency should have developed a sensibility against that kind of code anyway. However, if what one is trying is to *stop* putting values on the channel, I see no possible race conditions.
