In general, this works, but I keep finding more and more corner cases
with it.  In particular, if RT doesn't have some Queue context to help
it out, hilarity ensues.

We've also fixed several bugs around this in newer versions, so
without knowing if you're still looking at 3.8 or are on 4.0, the
behavior may be different.
