Details:

The attached program will attempt to fetch from an NSURLHandle multiple
times, spawning multiple threads to do it.  On apple-apple-* it works as
expected, and every fetch results in some data being available.  On gnu-gnu-*
it doesn't work reliably, with more than one worker thread.  Sometimes it's
completely successful, but sometimes some of the -[NSURLHandle
loadInForeground] requests return nil and, as I've been testing with HTTP
URLs, also don't have an NSHTTPPropertyStatusCodeKey; it seems like the
method returns without actually having performed the load.
