Bah. That case doesn't even trigger the new code. I was lazy with my
grep. The two cases are "do_splice()" (which does have the
wait-for-space) and splice_direct_to_actor(). And
splice_direct_to_actor() shouldn't even need it, should it?

So ignore that. But I think there is something about the EAGAIN.
