More work on word-count.
Updated the MapReduce protocol so that it's correct more often. It's
still not perfect, but the bugs repro less often now.

Also found a race condition in channel sending. The problem is that
send and receive both need to refer to the _unread field in
circular_buffer. For now I just grabbed the port lock to send. We can
probably get around this by using atomics instead.
