+ * 1. The slot may not have been reused for another requst

+ * 2. The slot may already be in-use to serve another request,

+ * (a) If call run_active_slot() hasn't been called for that
+ * other request, slot->finished would have been cleared
+ * by get_active_slot() and has NULL.
+ *
+ * (b) If the request did call run_active_slot(), then the
+ * call would have updated slot->finished at the beginning
+ * of this function, and with the clearing of the member
+ * below, we would find that slot->finished is now NULL.
+ *
+ * In all cases, slot->finished has no useful information to
+ * anybody at this point. Some compilers warn us for
+ * attempting to smuggle a pointer that is about to become
+ * invalid, i.e. &finished. We clear it here to assure them.
