What's your exact version of Python?  asyncio is still evolving
rapidly, and may behave differently between patch releases (say,
between 3.4.1 and 3.4.3).

I have tried out your reproducer with my fix, and I can't provoke a
hang using Python 3.4.3 on either OSX or Ubuntu Trusty.  Can you give
some more specific directions to reproduce?
