Well it's closer as it sends the messages to all threads. However it
looks like the assumption that all threads are paying attention is
wrong:

USB inserted. Waiting for ack from 7 threads...
usb: got ack, 6 to go...

I'll see if I can figure out why.

I fully intend to once I've got something working. I'm generally
hesitant to break the firmware on my iPod as it is my only portable
audio device so I like to keep it stablish ;-)

Plus it allows me to experiment with other builds.
