Ok, how about this:  Instead of index notification, run the generator
and receiver serially.

I've attached a concept patch.  I don't like creating such a
special-case for read-batch, but it seems like it might solve the
problem you found.

OTOH, I can see some benefit to mainlining some sort of g2r index
notification just as an on-going sanity check.
