I agree. The fact that this was submitted as a blocker slipped past me.

In my opinion blockers are serious “stop the bus — this software is 
fundamentally broken” issues. This bug has presumably been present in every 
release since the move to disruptor way back in 0.8.0, and only 
discovered/reported now (excellent catch Sean). So it doesn’t feel like a 
blocker.

That being said, I think it’s a very important issue to get resolved. I’m 
willing to cancel the current 0.9.2 release vote (there aren’t any votes yet), 
review the patch, and re-release if that’s how we want to proceed.

What do you think?
