I would like to *guarantee* that pause() pauses immediately in node
0.8. Most of the time it pauses immediately anyway, and it's a huge
PITA dealing with the remaining edge cases where a data event might
happen after a pause() call. If people really like the old situation
we could make the old behavior optional, e.g.
`stream.pause(allowData=false)`.
