Hi,
a ProxyPullSupplier deadlocks if more than one pull consumer are
connected to the same event channel. The following stack traces of
two concurrent threads of eventd will illustrate the facts:
At first a pull request from the ProxyPullSupplier site (Thread B).
It gets the mutex 'ProxyPullSupplier_impl::requests' (Thread B, Line
#5).
Now a pull callback on the ProxyPullConsumer site arises (Thread A)
notifying a new event. It locks when trying to forward the event to
our ProxyPullSupplier.
Finally back to Thread B. It continues ProxyPullSupplier_impl::notify
() blocking on its just locked mutex.
Thread A:

I applied the following patch to solve the problem:
