[Cake] Lockup at high speeds

As you may have seen, I hit a lockup bug when testing Cake at high
speeds. I am not quite sure what is happening, but we seem to be looping
forever either in cake_dequeue() or cake_enqueue(), causing deadlocks.
Unfortunately, I have no more time to debug this for now. As far as I
can tell, it only seems to be happening as the shaped rate approaches or
exceeds the link speed, or when running in unlimited mode. So for all I
know it might be possible to trigger it at lower speeds as well...
Anyone with any bright ideas?

P.S. While testing this, I did manage to get some high speed results
before everything blew up on me:
