The (broken) jitter testcase runs two threads, an interrupter thread at
prio 80, and a worker at 10.  Both sleep.  I just ran the testcase
standalone, and no stall happened, so perhaps something from an earlier
testcase got stuck.. or something.

I'll try maxing out boost, and see what happens.  It was set to 50.
