It looks like the background thread is incorrectly inserting elements into self.event_handlers during this iteration. This is the first time I've seen this, so I suspect it's rarely hit. Looking at the code, most access is protected by a lock except for the additions at the beginning of the _worker method. Looking through the stacktrace, this looks like the likely culprit since we start the consumer and immediately start calling `await_all_members`, which ultimately iterates over that list. If that call happens faster than the thread gets started we could hit a bad interleaving.
Fix is probably easy -- just add the proper locking around use of that object.
