The fixes to wait_reading_process_ouput have definitely made a
difference.  I used to see hangs several times a day, but after the fix,
I'm only seeing the hangs once every few days, and it's impossible to
set up a repeatable test case for them.  So my guess is that there might
still be a problem in this area, but that the window for triggering it
is much smaller.
