I think the problems resulting from the multicast changes have been resolved.  I 
wasn't treating an SA query id of 0 as valid, which threw off the reference 
counting by 1.  (I got a callback that I wasn't expecting.)

With ipoib using the new multicast module, I'm not sure that it still has a 
module unload issue.  The problem gets pushed down to the multicast module instead.
