unsafe quitting mechanism #9

From Nigel Tao:
I just wanted to note, though, that:
Goroutine A: xu.Quit = true
Goroutine B: for { if xu.Quit { return } // etc. }
isn't guaranteed to work. See http://golang.org/ref/mem, especially the part that says "another incorrect idiom is busy waiting for a value".
