Can the pointer comparison be pipelined?  That is, the write pointer
would be compared against the next read pointer instead of[1] the
current one.  That way, it would be acceptable for there to be a delay
of one clock before the a halt signal could reach the writer.

It would likely be complicated, but I'm just throwing ideas out,
though.


[1] More likely "as well as" instead of "instead of", though.
