Yes. The simulator continues switching back-and-forth, printing out panics and 
stacktraces etc., until the tick counter rolls over. I ever tried arbitrarily 
extending the time in simulate() after drain() returns as all drained, but 
before I do the switchout, and this still causes a kernel panic. It seems as 
though some state isn't able to settle/drain while the system is in Draining 
state and it isn't being properly transferred/cleared on a switch.
